This year we have changed the nomination process for students running for roles in the Student Elections. Candidates will no longer be asked to write a full manifesto outlining what they propose to achieve if elected. Instead, this written piece will be in a Q&A format whereby candidates will be required to provide answers to seven key questions that will enable voters to decide who will fit each role the best.
All candidates must complete an online e-learning course which outlines the Election rules, key contacts, your responsibilities as a candidate around campaigning an tips for running your campaign.
Shortly after nominations close on Monday 5th February you will be sent a link to the e-learning course. This is compulsory and if you have not completed the training you will not be added to the ballot.
As well as the compulsory e-learning training, we’ll also be hosting a series of workshops which will be an opportunity for you to get to know your fellow candidates, chat to staff and to ask any questions you may have.
These sessions are not compulsory but are in place for you to come along and access support and get feedback on your campaign in a supportive environment.
Congratulations, you’re officially a candidate standing in the Student Elections!
