Student and Staff Committee
The Student and Staff Committee provides a formal channel of communication between students and Lifelong Learning.
The Student and Staff Committee provides an important forum for staff and students to discuss any problems and issues that may arise. Although the Committee does not have formal policy-making powers, its advisory role is taken very seriously and the participation of all the students is positively encouraged. The Committee also has a social role and can take initiatives in proposing and organising social events.
The purpose of the Student-Staff Committee is to discuss the content, organisation and programmes of academic subjects, timetabling issues, resources, communications, and to consider issues raised by students related to all aspects of the students’ experiences.
If you have a point to make and you want your voice to be heard, contact one of your Academic Representatives. Talking to your student representative is a way of making yourself heard and of channelling a more personal form of feedback.

Having lived in Ceredigion for over 30 years, I first came to Aberystwyth University Lifelong Learning to study Field Ecology. I have obtained my Higher Education Certificate and am now working towards the diploma. In 2017 I undertook research into the ecology of vermicompost for my MPhil. After that, I held a number of research technician posts at the university relating to soils and growing. I have worked in environment and sustainability for most of my career in the private and third sectors. I now manage my own woodland for biodiversity and carbon conservation. |

Ceridwen Pruitt
I am an International Relations postgraduate student passionate about cultural sensitivity and using language learning as a means of connection. I currently speak English, French, know American Sign Language, and am learning Spanish and Welsh. I feel strongly about learning a language "later" in life and thoroughly believe there's no such thing as too late. I enjoy giving others language learning tips based on their individual learning styles and am neurodivergent conscious. |
