Establishing Students’ Support System

This workshop aims to provide university educators and administrators with a comprehensive understanding of student support systems, their significance, and practical applications in promoting academic success and wellbeing. Through interactive discussions, case studies, and collaborative activities, participants will gain the knowledge and skills needed to design and implement effective support frameworks. By the end of the workshop, participants will be better prepared to foster fairness, inclusion, and student empowerment within their institutions.

By establishing and enhancing student support systems, universities can:

• Ensure Fairness and Inclusion: Student support services provide equal opportunities for all learners, ensuring that academic progress is not hindered by personal, social, or financial barriers.

• Promote Academic and Personal Wellbeing: Comprehensive academic advising, psychological counseling, and mentorship programs help students thrive both academically and emotionally.

• Safeguard Legal and Ethical Rights: Effective support systems uphold students’ rights and ensure compliance with institutional, national, and accreditation standards.

• Empower Student Participation: Encouraging students to take active roles in governance and decision-making strengthens their sense of belonging and responsibility.

• Enhance Institutional Quality and Reputation: A robust student support framework reflects an institution’s commitment to excellence, accountability, and continuous improvement in higher education.
