Welcome to the Higher Education Academy Wales

Wales has a distinctive higher education system, and the concept of Academy Wales has been developed to recognise and support this.

Our aims are to:

  • Support the professional development of individual staff
  • Support institutions
  • Support communities of practice through our Subject Centres
  • Contribute to national policy

A review of Welsh Higher Education Institutions' widening access strategies is being undertaken.
