Lead Reps listen to concerns from your Course Reps and raise any issues that are wider-spread in higher level meetings, to ensure staff can change things that affect as many students as possible. They work for us, your Students' Union, so we make sure they know everything they need to know to support you every year.

Apprenticeship Lead Rep

Degree Apprenticeships

Lead Apprenticeship Rep
Laura Davies
laura.davies@capgemini.com

Navigating a degree apprenticeship is a unique balancing act between career demands and academic goals. Because this path requires a different approach, our Apprenticeship Lead Rep - an apprentice themselves - provides specialised representation that understands the specific pressures of work-based learning.

They differ from our other Lead Reps as they don't work for us at Hallam SU and have different responsibilities.

What do Lead Reps do?

Lead Reps are key to making sure the voices of all students are heard at a higher level, beyond your course specifically. We know that sometimes problems come up for students that are more widely spread, and we want to make sure that your opinions are heard, and changes are made, no matter what the concern is. Lead Reps help with this and are paid students dedicated to provide this support.

How do you become a Lead Rep?

Lead Reps are recruited each year, and are appointed by the College Officers, Representation team, and where possible a panellist from your area of study, usually a Student Experience Lead.

Are you interested in other activities?

We are a democratic organisation that empowers you to fight for change on campus and seek support from elected representatives who have got your back. You can find out more about other ways to get involved in campaigning, elections, policy, who your Officers are, and more via Union Council.
