The event showcased six of the case studies and was very well received by the delegates. 42 This one day event built on two workshop sessions run at the Advisory and IT Support Symposium in June. The event, which was presented by the SSG Service Desk Group enabled delegates to complete the whole of the Service Desk Good Practice Guide, which was started at the symposium, and also focused on "Key Performance Indicators" (KPIs) for the Service Desk, seeking to determine typical values from across the sector.

Total number of delegates 323 at SSG events Total number of delegates 80 at SSG- badged events 5. Engaging Hearts and Minds Good Practice Guide In conjunction with the event on Engaging Hearts and Minds, the Academic Support Group has created a Good Practice Guide to provide examples of good practice in engaging academics, and other staff, in the use of Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL). The guide contains ten case studies which look at a variety of methods for engaging academics such as: setting up communities of practice developing intensive training and support programmes incorporating TEL into Postgraduate Certificate courses encouraging academics to publish their research in TEL. Each case study describes the activity and the approach taken, provides an evaluation of the activity and discusses future developments and transferability.
5 UCISA- SSG (Support Services Group) Business Plan Introduction This document summarises the main activities planned by the UCISA Support Services Group (UCISA- SSG) and its sub- groups in the period March 2012 to February 2013 that have a financial dimension, and which may incur costs or make a financial contribution to UCISA funds. Details of the other activities and of the structure and function of the SSG and its four sub- groups, Academic Support (SSG- ASG), Communications (SSG- CG), Service Desk (SSG- SDG) and User Skills (SSG- USG) can be found at: 2. Plans for March 2012 to February 2013 The Support Services Group committee is an umbrella group, whose membership comprises the four Chairs and four Vice Chairs of each of its sub- groups. The UCISA- SSG committee meets three times a year in order to co- ordinate and support the sub- groups, and to work collectively on cross- cutting activities for the benefit of UCISA members from the support services community. The Chair of UCISA- SSG is a member of the Executive Committee of UCISA and provides the primary link between the Executive and the UCISA- SSG and its sub- groups. The group is also joined by the Executive Secretary and Business Manager at its annual planning meeting, which will take place in the autumn of Support Services Conference The main event in the SSG Calendar for is the 2012 Support Services Conference, a three- day event, jointly organised and run with the UCISA Staff Development Group (SDG). This year, the conference will take place from July at Crewe Hall, Cheshire, the first time this conference will be held at a non- academic venue. The full conference fee will be 395, which is an increase on the 2010 conference rate ( 350); however, it has been assumed that there will be little if any sponsorship and so the conference will be entirely funded from delegate fees. The organising committee is Sue Fells & Peter Tinson (UCISA HQ), Tony Brett & Nici Cooper (UCISA SDG) and James Woodward & Vince Woodley (UCISA SSG). The theme of the conference will be around the expectations staff, students and visitors have from IT services within a University. IT has experienced a number of challenges over the recent years and in turn has made a number of changes. With the introduction of higher fees for the next academic year IT departments are going to be put under even more pressure to enhance the service they provide. The aim of the conference is to bring together the different expectations from our various customers, look at how we can continue to deliver, keep up to date and manage our services in order to provide an excellent experience for all. Social Media for Training The User Skills Group is running a one- day event at the University of Salford, MediaCityUK campus on 18 April on using Social Media for Training. During the event, delegates will gain insight into best practice from across the sector, find out about some of the issues surrounding the use of social media and how to deal with them, understand how to make informed decisions about the use and potential use of social media, and learn how to get started, what tools to use and how to integrate them into other training methods.
6 Technology Enhanced Learning Survey The major activity for the Academic Support Group this year is the biennial Technology Enhanced Learning Survey (funded by JISC). The survey was sent out to all UK HE institutions in mid- January and from March to September the group will be analysing the data and writing the Survey report. As per the 2010 Survey, the group also intend to add a set of case studies to accompany the Survey report. The group expect to present the Survey findings at various conferences as well as produce a journal article to mark the 10th anniversary of the Survey. Service Desk Toolkit The Service Desk Group is planning to undertake a service desk toolkit survey and produce a report containing survey results and case studies. Online directory of IT training expertise in HE The User Skills Group will be investigating the possibility of creating a fully- searchable online directory of IT training expertise in HE, with content provided and updated by the community. 3. Finances General Policy The UCISA Executive Committee exercises financial oversight principally by approving the annual Business Plan of the UCISA- SSG. All events are organised in accordance with UCISA Financial Regulations agreed by the UCISA Executive. Compliance is ensured by the procedure of projected income and expenditure accounts for each event being submitted to the UCISA Treasurer for scrutiny and approval. Budgets and draft accounts for each event are discussed by the appropriate organising committee and endorsed by the Chair of UCISA- SSG before submission. Final accounts after each event are reported to the appropriate organising committee and Chair of UCISA- SSG for monitoring. Planned Income and Expenditure March 2012 to February 2013 Events: It is UCISA financial policy that groups will be overall self- financing for all their events in the planning period. UCISA- SSG will adhere to this policy, and while recognising that losses and gains may arise on individual events, aims to return a modest surplus of 5000 over the course of the year. Case studies: UCISA- SSG looks to promote best practice by producing, presenting and publishing case studies on its area of the website. A budget of 2400 is therefore requested in order to support the generation of two sets of case studies during 2012/13, with full proposals to be submitted to the Treasurer and Executive Secretary in due course. Web development: A budget of 2k is sought to create the online directory of IT training expertise in HE, with a full proposal to be submitted to the Treasurer and Executive Secretary in due course.
7 Surveys and Toolkits: We hope to obtain corporate sponsorship for the creation of the Service Desk Toolkit report and case studies. However, a budget of 100 is requested as an incentive to complete the initial survey. Committees: Committee meetings of the UCISA- SSG and its sub- groups do not normally incur significant costs, as members employing institutions take it in turns to host and cater meetings free of charge and pay the travel costs for members to attend meetings. The exceptions to this are the annual two- day strategy and planning meetings of the UCISA- SSG and SSG- SDG, where committee members are expected to stay overnight, and the costs of accommodation and dinner are covered by UCISA. A budget of 2000 is requested for the UCISA- SSG planning meeting and 1200 for the SSG- SDG planning meeting. Administration: General administrative support is provided by UCISA and is not costed explicitly in this plan. Administrative support for specific purposes such as conferences and workshops is included in the costing for each event through a per user levy. 4. Risk The maximum financial risk incurred is limited to the up- front financing of an event that might not realise the projected income or cancellation charges for an event that does not run. The maximum uncontrolled expenditure over the course of this planning period is therefore in the region of 53k ( 50k for the Support Services Conference and 3k for the Using Social Media for Training one- day event).
