The rise in tuition fees five years ago put more pressure on universities to show the value that they deliver for students. As the political debate around fees continues, it risks detracting from the discussion of the wider contribution that universities make to society.
Universities are working to address this and are finding new ways to get their important messages across. Over the last few years BUFDG has also been chipping in to help universities communicate their value. BUFDG’s contribution to the effort has included supporting finance directors to improve financial communication, assisting the development of value reporting (in particular the use of Integrated Reporting ), and developing our own educational materials.
We’ve now pulled all this work together on a new area of the website; Value and value reporting, under the ‘about’ section. It includes our new videos (see below), all our previous work on Integrated Reporting, and all the other connected news and resources. If you’re looking for any information on this work, you’ll probably find it there. And if you can’t, drop Matt an email.
