Registry and Records SIG

About the Registry and Records SIG

The Registry and Records SIG is a space for colleagues working in student records and registry roles to connect.

This SIG is an ideal platform for those in student records roles, covering everything from enrolment to graduation alongside wider registry roles including assessment and data quality. Acknowledging the difference in structures at HEIs some of the areas that this SIG covers are as follows:
• Enrolment, re-enrolment and registration
• Reporting to Student Finance
• Change of circumstances (withdrawals, suspensions, change of module/programme)
• Graduation
• Certificates, transcripts and documents
• Assessment and awards
• Data returns


What can you expect from the Registry and Records SIG?

–  A specialised network of like-minded colleagues providing opportunities for personal and professional development in line with the professional framework

– Opportunities to share ideas, knowledge and best practice to support each other in our roles and to get different perspectives on common issues and challenges we all face

Meet the Coordinators

Louise Tomenson, Lead Coordinator, Registry and Records SIG

Student Records Manager, Registry

York St John University

My HE career began in 2006 with what was supposed to be a short term contract as Award Ceremonies Co-ordinator at University of Bradford, fast forward eighteen years and I’m still working in the sector. I have experience from a range of roles at University of Bradford, University of Leeds and York St John University and started my current role as Student Records Manager in the Registry team at York St John University in October 2023. My team is responsible for enrolment through to graduation and much more in between including change of circumstances, student finance reporting and award document production.

I completed the AUA PgCert in HE Administration Leadership and Management in 2022 and have since become a mentor for students on the programme.  I previously led a staff wellbeing project and am an advocate for the importance of wellbeing at work. For me, one of the best aspects of working in HE is the opportunity to network and share best practice and I’m excited to see how the SIG develops and look forward to getting to know more colleagues across the sector.
