Conference Speaker: Kim Smith, NELEP
This session was presented at the Higher Education Adviser and Teacher Conference 2022 and presented an opportunity to hear about three recent projects the North East LEP has been involved in which impact upon CEIAG. These include an ESRC funded collaborative project with Newcastle University, ‘Realising North East Ambition’ looking at the intended destinations of 7000 college learners in relation to local labour market opportunities; an externally commissioned Apprenticeships Research project with a focus on understanding apprenticeships through the lens of young people aged 16-18 and employers; and a local areas programme study which the Gatsby Foundation commissioned the LEP to undertake to understand and capture lesson learnt across 5 external regions for the coherent planning of T-levels.
