University College Birmingham Guild to use MSL System® to support expanding student services

May 2019 - University College Birmingham Guild of Students will underpin its growing service provision for student members with the MSL System®. The new membership management system will provide the Guild with a new website, student groups resources, integrated online elections and the StudentLink® app.

Membership Solutions Ltd (MSL) is pleased to announce that University College Birmingham Guild of Students (UCB Guild) has selected the MSL System as its new digital membership management platform. The Guild is to replace its current website with MSL’s solution which will incorporate a new website, student group resources including Student Group Finances, elections, StudentLink app, ecommerce facilities, events and ticketing.

University College Birmingham was granted university status in 2012 and, since then, its Guild of Students has expanded its offering to provide more services to students. Operating from three facilities across the UCB campus in the Jewellery Quarter, the Guild runs a shop and activities centre in addition to the main office from where its representation, welfare, student groups and activities services are provided. The Guild’s executive officers and staff have been tasked with further increasing engagement opportunities and the MSL System will play a pivotal role in the delivery of these new opportunities.

We’re hugely excited to be implementing the MSL System here at UCB Guild of Students. From enabling our student leaders to grow and develop their societies, to communicating to our whole student body about the great work our officers are doing on their behalf, we’re certain that our new website will bring about a sea change when it comes to our student engagement.

Sarah Kerton, UCB Guild Manager

We are delighted to be working with the UCB Guild team at an exciting time of growth and development for this forward-thinking organisation. The MSL System is ideally suited to supporting the Guild as its membership increases and new engagement challenges are identified.

Colin Watson, Chief Executive of Membership Solutions.
