What do Class Reps do?
EC Students' Association recruit, train and support the Class Reps at Edinburgh College. Every year, your class will elect two fellow students to be Class Reps. These representatives are vital to improve the learning and teaching experience at Edinburgh College.
Class Reps act as our eyes and ears, identifying and reporting issues at the class level, as well as working with us to create solutions. Being a Class Rep is very rewarding as you get to help shape and improve the college for current and future students.
How do I become a Class Rep?
Each Class will be asked to elect two Class Reps. This will be done by your Learning Development Tutor (for Further Education courses) or your Course Tutor (for Higher Education courses). Being a Class Rep is not a huge commitment - you will need to attend one training session, and after that we host three or four meetings over the course of the year. You will also have the chance to meet with staff in your curriculum area.
Where does the feedback go?
After each meeting, we produce a report about what was discussed and the issues identified. This report is then presented to Edinburgh College's Senior Management Team and the Student Success Committee from the College Board of Management for them to consider and improve on areas highlighted. You can read these previous reports, as well as other relevant documents such as our Class Rep Handbook, below.
