Leadership, management and strategy for higher education in further education colleges: an expert programme for senior managers

This project will develop and provide an expert programme for senior managers of further education colleges offering higher education.

Over an 18 month period, it is proposed to build on and progress developments in the changing landscape of HE in FECs through collaborative partnerships. Seminars will be used to engage senior staff and governors in order to identify and share strategy and practice. In a second stage, these outcomes will be used to inform the production and test and trial of staff development resources for future use by colleges and partnerships.

This project is funded by HEFCE through its Leadership, Governance and Management Fund.

This website is being continuously updated as materials are added. Some sections may be under construction when you access them.

The 18 month funded project was completed in May 2010. However, some elements have been extended to the end of 2011, including maintenance of the website, with a further seminar planned for early 2011.
