The theme of this year's conference will be around access and inclusion. We listened to your feedback from last year, where you suggested to hear more of our students' voices. And some of you also expressed particular interest in areas of emerging issues that are deeply affecting your work: namely trauma-informed practice, adverse childhood experiences and depressive illnesses. So to that end, this year's event will be through the lens of students, access routes and supports; and  we are delighted to announce Dr Katriona O'Sullivan, award-winning author, as our Keynote Speaker.

Draft Agenda:

• HEAR/DARE CAO allocation process
• Student Services available at UCC through UCC Access teams, Student Experience teams including wellbeing and mental health supports.
• CAO offerings, course updates
• key events, CAO, course updates
• sit-down lunch and keynote speaker (Q6 & Q7 - kindly confirm your lunch attendance and dietary requirements).
