All higher education providers (HEPs).

Notes

This field forms part of the calculation for Non-residential NIA total, which is mandatory for HE providers in England, Northern Ireland or Wales.

This field records the NIA of offices associated with teaching space. It includes:

  • academic support staff offices if used for the purposes of departmental, divisional or faculty support staff,
  • managers, administrators, executives, secretaries, and technicians (if they have identifiable office space),
  • ancillary storage space,
  • the offices of staff that are contracted to teach, and any attribution of other office space used for teaching activities.

Where the associated costs, such as waste and energy cannot be separately identified for a commercial space area, NIA for the commercial space area should be included in the EMR under Total NIA commercial space (SMNIACT). Providers should return the commercial space area as per other areas under the appropriate space measurement field, in this case Teaching offices NIA. Providers should also return the space under Total NIA commercial space. This way, the total commercial space area can be distinguished from Total NIA.
