- Location:Zoom
- Date:20/05/2026

- Time:2.5 hours
Stop press is our biannual flagship event for UKCISA members to keep up to date with all significant immigration changes affecting international students from the last six months.
We will be holding this event on 20 May to cover changes and updates to law and policy from November 2025 to April 2026. It will include any relevant changes from the Autumn Statement of Changes to the Immigration Rules as well as an update on UKCISA’s work in liaising on policies and processes with government departments.
This course will help you to:
-
identify changes in law, policy, guidance and caselaw that have had a big impact on international students in the preceding 6 months.
-
assess how these changes affect your work.
-
hear from UKCISA about any potential impact of recent and upcoming changes and ongoing discussions in relation to these.
This stand-alone training will include presentations, the opportunity for you to ask questions and discuss relevant immigration developments.
Our training is grounded in the principles of the #WeAreInternational Student Charter, a student-led document that provides guidance on delivering a world-class international student experience, from pre-arrival to post-graduation. This course will provide you with the tools, skills and knowledge to support the implementation of all the principles in the charter.
Who should attend?
This event is for staff working with international students who have a good understanding of the current immigration system.
Suitable for: international student advisers; student advisers; compliance staff;
Minimum experience level: experience of the Student route required
