Description
The Government has awarded around £80m to establish four employer-led National Colleges (Creative and Cultural, Digital Skills, Nuclear, and High Speed Rail). Labour market changes are driving the need for flexible means by which the workforce can gain and retrain in higher technical skills. These place National Colleges central to the Government's aim of improving the quality of qualifications and encourage more students to study for higher technical courses. Expressions of interest are sought to conduct a process evaluation to explore the process of policy implementation and delivery of National College policy to date, and identify factors that have helped or hindered its effectiveness.
