Have a question? Pop along to the Manchester Online drop in
12 Nov 2026
Following our Manchester Online open meeting on 28 October, we’re continuing the conversation with an informal drop-in session on Wednesday 18 November, between 3pm and 4pm.
Manchester Online is a strategic initiative that aims to make University of Manchester education accessible to more learners through flexible online study. The programme is currently in mobilisation, with colleagues from across the University helping to shape the future experience.
Following our Manchester Online open meeting on 28 October, we want to continue creating opportunities for colleagues to find out more about the initiative, meet the people involved and ask questions as the work develops.
As part of this ongoing engagement, we’re holding an informal drop-in session on Wednesday 18 November, from 3pm to 4pm in Booth Street East, room G.02.
There’s no formal presentation or set agenda. Colleagues can simply 'drop in' at any point during the hour to have a conversation, ask questions or learn more about Manchester Online.
Rob Appleby (Associate Vice-President for Students), Dawid Rheeder (Manchester Online Lead and Interim AVP Digital) and Colette Cooke (Manchester Online PS Lead and Head of Education Development) will be there. They will be joined by Claire Whittingam (Vice President, Education Services EMEA) and Laura Dent (Partnership Director) from Risepoint, our online education partner. It’s an opportunity to meet the team, hear more about how we’re working together and discuss any questions you may have.
When: Wednesday 18 November, 3pm–4pm
Where: Booth Street East, room G.02
Come along and learn more about Manchester Online and how the work is developing.
