Digital Rep

We have now launched Digital Rep, our new online feedback platform where you can submit feedback about your course, school or faculty at any point throughout the Academic Year. This information is vital to not only help your Student Reps make changes to improve your academic experience, but also for you to have a voice in your education. We have launched this following the development of our Course Rep Review and the creation of our new Education Strategy in partnership with the University.

Below, you will see a video explaining how Digital Rep works. It’s really easy to give us your feedback, you just need to tell us something that works well, something that doesn’t work well and something that could be improved. With this feedback, our Student Reps can work to improve your Academic Experience, as well as sharing with the University the things that they do well. You can start logging your feedback now, so please tell us how you feel so that we can listen to your voice and make the changes you want to see.

To access Digital Rep and start giving your feedback, follow this link! http://bit.ly/KUDigitalRep
