Higher education in further education colleges: projects

• Higher Education Learning Partnerships (HELP) Centre for Excellence in Teaching and Learning
  The University of Plymouth and its regional FEC partners have developed an extensive programme of themed activities and investigations. This has enhanced successful partnerships between further and higher education, and helped to share good practice across partnerships in other regions. The project is now complete, but the web-site will remain until 2015 for the benefit of the sector.
  
  
• Leadership, management and strategy for higher education in further education colleges: an expert programme for senior managers
  This project offers support for colleges in developing or refining an HE strategy and in leadership, management and delivery of higher education, improving staff satisfaction and the student experience. The first stage of the project involved a series of strategic seminars for college principals in early 2009, and the second stage has been the production of a web-site containing staff development materials. 
  
  
• 'The ability to deliver' - a case study on models of governance in existing and proposed University Centres
  This project reviewed the effectiveness of governance and management arrangements in partnerships between further and higher education at HE centres.
