Shareen Thewke Named as an HEUG Ambassador for 2025
HEUG (Higher Education User Group) is a global user community for higher education. It's a space for institutions from all around the world to share their knowledge and experience, collaborate on common practices, and ask questions.
To help strengthen and grow the HEUG community, the HEUG Ambassador program was launched in 2025. NeSIS's own Financial Aid Functional Coordinator, Shareen Thewke, has been selected to be part of the inaugural group of Ambassadors for 2025. Shareen has been very active in HEUG for many years - as a presenter at several of the annual Alliance conferences, serving on the Financial Aid PAG (Product Advisory Group) for four years, and she is also an active participant in many of the discussion boards and communities within HEUG. The knowledge she has gained has been very beneficial to the NeSIS system and having her represent our institutions' needs to the larger HEUG community has also been invaluable.
Congratulations Shareen!
