18 April 202314
Where did we start….
• Under-qualified/Under-skilled workforce
• low HE participation rates (c.55% Nat. average)
• low demand for higher skills from learners and employers (due to low perception of ‘value added’)
• Limited understanding amongst some employers of what higher skills their businesses need
• Limited recognition of potential contribution of Universities
![Page 15: Organised by:In partnership with:Sponsored by: EMPLOYER ENGAGEMENT THE COMMONWEALTH CLUB 13 MAY 2009 How far should universities go to meet the needs of.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110207/56649d235503460f949f95ac/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
18 April 202315
Priorities we had to address
• Building external confidence….… by demonstrating responsiveness, high value added & flexibility
(in structure, content, attendance, location, start/finish: ‘roll-on roll-off’, AP(E)L, staged awards, etc)
• Enhancing understanding of ‘the offer’
• Delivering demonstrable ‘bottom line value added’
![Page 16: Organised by:In partnership with:Sponsored by: EMPLOYER ENGAGEMENT THE COMMONWEALTH CLUB 13 MAY 2009 How far should universities go to meet the needs of.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110207/56649d235503460f949f95ac/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
18 April 202316
Some examples of what are we doing?
Starting to behave like a business! …..• Demonstrating (& celebrating) a ‘can do’,
‘business solutions’ approach
• Spending more time/resource getting to know our markets & how they’re changing
• Developing a more flexible, responsive & ‘business like’ pan-University interface …….. using a ‘hub and spoke’ model:– central coordination/leadership – senior managers in every school– ‘Account Manager Infrastructure’ – University wide CRM
![Page 17: Organised by:In partnership with:Sponsored by: EMPLOYER ENGAGEMENT THE COMMONWEALTH CLUB 13 MAY 2009 How far should universities go to meet the needs of.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110207/56649d235503460f949f95ac/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
18 April 202317
Focussing on our economic (& social and cultural) contribution• Regional Economic Strategy (RES)
“placed Universities and Colleges at the heart
of the regional economy”
• Now we….“Place the regional economy at the heart of everything we do”
using a X-disciplinary, cluster based approach reflecting Institutional strengths…. & linking to key regional sectors & Workforce Development priorities
![Page 18: Organised by:In partnership with:Sponsored by: EMPLOYER ENGAGEMENT THE COMMONWEALTH CLUB 13 MAY 2009 How far should universities go to meet the needs of.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110207/56649d235503460f949f95ac/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
18 April 202318
So what are we doing? (cont’d…)
Taking positive action to change the culture & increase ownership/engage’t through e.g.– a LOT of internal comms.
– reflection in mission… …. Business Engagement Strategy (incorp. WfD Strategy) - one of 3 ‘Primary Strategies’
– limited restructuring
– evolving workloading & rewards systems
– accreditation and approval mechanisms

18 April 202320
Building Demand
• Enhanced IAG through ‘ONE DOOR’ ‘gateway’ (partnership with local FECs)
• Involving employers at every stage of design delivery and evaluation… which can assist with the ‘funding model’
• Working through intermediaries,...e.g. NECC, ECITB, NEPIC, NPIA, FSB, Cogent, Skillset, Skills for Health,…
• Embracing ‘QA, Brand & Accredit’
![Page 21: Organised by:In partnership with:Sponsored by: EMPLOYER ENGAGEMENT THE COMMONWEALTH CLUB 13 MAY 2009 How far should universities go to meet the needs of.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110207/56649d235503460f949f95ac/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
18 April 202321
And… what have we learned ?
![Page 22: Organised by:In partnership with:Sponsored by: EMPLOYER ENGAGEMENT THE COMMONWEALTH CLUB 13 MAY 2009 How far should universities go to meet the needs of.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110207/56649d235503460f949f95ac/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
18 April 202322
Funding• Funding models can be ‘win:win’…. but …
– it’s ‘risky’ & it’s ‘lumpy’ (producing step changes in funding)
– relies on employers being willing to contribute
• Flexibility of funded nos. is critical - need to: either: know ASNs will be available or: have flexibility to strategically
transfer nos. from elsewhere
otherwise need to go for full cost• Grow when opps. arise - can’t always
choose to grow when it suits you
![Page 23: Organised by:In partnership with:Sponsored by: EMPLOYER ENGAGEMENT THE COMMONWEALTH CLUB 13 MAY 2009 How far should universities go to meet the needs of.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110207/56649d235503460f949f95ac/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
18 April 202323
Need to • want to do it… (it’s NOT compulsory)• find a way of embedding it as a
widely accepted part of ‘what you do’• balance protecting standards with ‘fit
for purpose’ QA processes • know what you are good at before
you’re asked • establish a reputation for ‘delivering’• work through intermediaries
![Page 24: Organised by:In partnership with:Sponsored by: EMPLOYER ENGAGEMENT THE COMMONWEALTH CLUB 13 MAY 2009 How far should universities go to meet the needs of.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110207/56649d235503460f949f95ac/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
18 April 202324
And…. to be successful your offer MUST…..
• meet a recognised need• be accessible and not overly disruptive• be financially competitive and demonstrate
“bottom line value added”•
For example….. NECC FD in Leadership & Mgmt• Developed in partnership• Employer led content/delivery • NECC oversee recruitment...1st cohort NECC
staff
• Minimal attendance plus…residentials, master classes, in-co. coaching/mentoring & VLE delivery/ support
