What delegates came to discuss…
This conference will be an opportunity to discuss the Skills and Post-16 Education Bill, which will legislate for policies announced in the Skills for Jobs white paper outlining priorities for the FE sector and its role in national economic recovery.
It coincides with a range of further developments, such as the recent publication of the Workplace Training and Development Commission Report, commissioned by the British Chambers of Commerce, which calls for the national skills system to be overhauled, as well as the recent changes to post-16 qualifications following the Government’s review of qualifications at level 3 and below in England.
We are pleased to be able to include keynote contributions from:
- Beth Chaudhary, Director of Strategy, Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education
- Lewis Cooper, Director, Independent Commission on the College of the Future (Pre-recorded presentation)
- Sally Dicketts, President, Association of Colleges, on the next steps for developing the FE sector
