Before completing the application
form to access support, please read the information
below.
Is your
organisation willing and able to commit the required staff
time?
The support comprises some of the following
elements:
- Regional peer working group meetings to develop and share
practice and resources across providers
- In-house management consultancy targeting senior and other
managers
- In-house support for staff teams in development activities
- In-house or locally hosted CPD sessions, tailored to your
organisation’s needs
In order to maximise the impact of the support on learners,
staff and organisations, you and other staff within your
organisation will need to access all relevant elements of the
support package. This will need a commitment of staff time
and the full support of senior managers. If your organisation
is willing and able to make this commitment please apply.
Register your details and select the activity or activities that
you would like to participate in.
Apply early for your organisation
to get the maximum possible support this year.
Applications will continue to be accepted until such time as the
programme targets are reached. However it will be advantageous to
apply early.
