What is HEAR?

The Higher Education Achievement Report (HEAR) is a transcript that details all an undergraduate student’s academic results and achievements in one electronic document.

As well as your academic results, it includes a range of extracurricular activities you’ve been a part of during your time at university and is a great way to increase your employability by demonstrating the skills and experiences you’ve gained from them and.

From volunteering in the community to working with our Information and Advice Service, there are various ways that undergraduate students can contribute to their HEAR transcript.

Below is a list of voluntary positions offered at NTSU that allow you to do just that.  

• Academic Reps- Academic Reps represent the students in their school or course and use their feedback to affect change at a higher level.
• Hall Reps- Hall Reps act as a voice for the students in their halls, helping to create the best possible experience for those living there.
• Welcome Week Volunteers- Welcome Week Volunteers are responsible for supporting new students in their first week at Trent, from showing them around the city to taking them to events at the SU.
• IAS Volunteers- Information and Advice Service Volunteers plan and run campaigns to raise awareness amongst their peers of the issues affecting students and how to avoid them.
