Education Intelligence is currently coordinating with HESA to have a more detailed dataset concerning international student enrolments prepared. We will definitely strive to complete the update of the Higher Education Student Data tool as soon as possible and we estimate that it will be ready in around middle of February. Institutions which currently possess a valid Education Intelligence annual subscription will be able to access the latest data.
As soon as the update is completed, we will inform users again through communication channels on SIEM website. For institutions which have not subscribed yet, details about the new subscription offers in 2014/15 will also be announced through the SIEM website and emails in the beginning of February.
