AULP is delighted to launch the AULP Awards, a brand new initiative designed to recognise and celebrate the achievements of legal teams and professionals working in the Higher Education sector. The AULP Awards will provide an opportunity to highlight the excellence, innovation and dedication shown by legal staff working across HE and be a platform for acknowledging the exceptional talent within the sector.
Awards will be presented at the Gala dinner during the AULP Annual Conference in Loughborough in June 2024.
