Our services include:

- student progress and assessment
- central support and coordination for academic programme development
- external partnerships
- academic policy and procedures, including assessment regulations
- timetabling of teaching and managing room bookings
- maintaining student records (current and past) and management of registration
- production of student transcripts and degree certificates
- management information
- support for teaching and learning for staff and students.
Another aspect of its role is to ensure that we have good and up-to-date feedback from students about their experience at Sussex, to which the University can respond, and to be the main point of liaison with the students' union (USSU).
