Reaching and Responding to Employers
Woburn House, Tavistock Square, London - 9th June 2010.
This seminar explored the processes and systems universities and colleges might need to have in place to support effective work with employers. In addition to presentations there where opportunities to interrogate "expert witnesses" to identify effective and transferable practice.
It is with great pleasure that we offer to the full membership these Powerpoint presentations from the CVU seminar “Reaching and Responding to Employers”, which was held jointly with fdf on 9th June 2010. It is a pleasure tinged with regret as I personally was unable to attend, but I have received very positive feedback from the event and am convinced that the presentations will be of great interest. In “ Reaching and Responding to Employers”, Adrian Evans summarises the context in which HE is being encouraged to work more closely with employers, and he extends this to demonstrate Teeside University’s approaches in “Getting the offer right”. Renata D Eyres outlines the approach of the University of Salford take in “”Engaging with Employers: getting the people right” and Celia Moran tackles the more technical issues of collaboration with employers in “”Getting the systems and costing right”. I hope they are of use to all members and look forward to more CVU seminars in 2010/11 which we will endeavour to make of equal interest and relevance.
