Office for Student Success

HEAD OF STUDENT SUCCESS:

Dr Perry Share E: success.sligo@atu.ie

The office of Student Success was established in 2020 at ATU Sligo. The office works across the University to enhance the student experience and to develop effective processes to support you in your learning. It works closely with areas such as Student Support Services, the Students’ Union, Clubs and Societies and the academic Faculties and Departments, as well as other units in the University.

The Student Success office is responsible for on-campus student induction, the annual national student survey, LinkedIn Learning for students, the PASS Mentoring scheme and a range of other initiatives.

Much of the work of the Student Success office is ‘behind the scenes’ but you will be likely to meet Perry at events like Induction, during the student survey or at feedback and consultation events during the year. WHAT DOES ‘SUCCESS’ AS A STUDENT MEAN FOR YOU?

Perhaps it is making good friends at college, graduating with first class honours, completing a good project, scoring a great work placement or overcoming personal barriers and circumstances to complete a qualification.

ALL OF THESE CAN BE REAL MARKERS OF ‘STUDENT SUCCESS’

We look forward to making your time at the University as good as it possibly can be and helping you to achieve success – however you define it! The office regularly seeks feedback and ideas from students, so watch out for our surveys, consultation events and other communications throughout the year. If you have any ideas about how we can make the University a better place for you or for other students, don’t hesitate to let us know.
