  1. Mechanisms for sustainable Employer Engagement Toolkit:workflows, protocols and risk assessment Mark Stone Acting Dean University of Plymouth Colleges faculty working with colleagues from Weymouth College plus inputs from other projects

  2. EE in practice • HEI / FEC EE work can be multifaceted and involve many staff on both sides - when mature • However the relationship mostly starts or is taken forward through single points of contact • Also commonly HEI /FEC staff undertake EE work for a narrow range of activity with short term goals in specific subject settings e.g. STEM

  3. Employer perspective • A common criticism for employers is they don’t fully understand what they can get from working with an HEI / FEC – plus when they get to speak to someone from an HEI / FEC they don’t understand the full range of opportunities • HEI / FE staff undertaking EE work are exposed to questions they are ill equipped to answer - as an institutional representative

  4. Work already done • EE support resources, many focused on ‘Business Intermediaries’ - aimed at linking up employers and HEIs / FECs • Work on business planning for HEI / FEC EE work including undertaking due diligence checks and maintaining risk registers • However this work has mostly been focused at an institutional or business unit level

  5. Aims • To focus resources on supporting those that undertake EE work - away from the HEI / FEC • Resources that allow HEI / FEC staff to more effectively outline / promote a wider range of EE opportunities, in broad strategic / practical terms • For resources to be customisable by institutions • To have resources tested and refined by a range of stakeholders • Make resources available via a repository + an introductory RLO podcast

  6. Resourceshttp://www.hestem-sw.org.uk/ & http://uplace.org.uk:8080/dspace/ • How to use guide • The value of EE to HEIs & FECs and its operation • The value of HEIs & FECs engagement for employers • The language of EE • Customer Relationship Management • STEM employer involvement in research • Accreditation of Prior Learning 2 x versions • Apprenticeships [Higher Level Apprenticeships] • Foundation Degrees • Work Based Learning • Labour Market Intelligence • Risk analysis • Employer Engagement Standards • Engaging with Employers • Customer Management Toolkit • Customer Satisfaction [and Procedures for obtaining Feedback] • Using a CRM System [training manual based on the Weymouth College system]

  7. Resource e.g. 12. Risk analysis tool / guide • A focus on the risk associated with new work, new relationships, cross institutional working / non core activities et al • Providing advice and questions that allow HEI / FEC EE practitioners to recognise risk factors and how they can come together • Aim to create a tool that can be used in the field as an initial test of EE propositions / opportunities - also an aid to engaging in institutional systems to formalise EE work if potentially viable
