  • Skills and Employability Service
    Skills and Employability Service By: David Knox To: ELS partnership board Date 21/10/15 Subject Skills and Employability - Guilds Classification: Hospitality, Leisure and Tourism is the most advanced guild so far with a wide range of support across the sector, culminating in the Big Hospitality Conversation with a date yet to be decided. There was a HLTT zone at the Kent Choices 4 U Live event in March. An employability passport is being reviewed with The Abbey School, MidKent College, The Rosemary Shrager Cookery School and East Kent College. Other key stakeholders include Visit Kent and Springboard UK, Tom Oulton is currently working with them for feedback on the pilot and agreeing the next stages. We have coordinated the schools engagement for Rosemary Shrager and her apprenticeship scheme this year. Between February and May twelve events in local schools were held. The feedback has been very good, and the school has received a good level of applications for the September start. The guild plans to create a web-based portal to assist employers to signpost changing employment and skills needs to ensure providers can meet existing demand and deliver skills pipelines in advance of future requirements. The portal will provide training and skills information, advice and guidance about entry paths to the sector and a means for employers to offer work experience, apprenticeships, part and full time work and professional career opportunities. The portal will link with Kent County Council’s Kent Choices 4U site. A scoping meeting has taken place with Visit Kent about whether Transport and Logistics would be set up as separate guilds, however from discussions with employers it was agreed to keep them as part of this guild.

  • Your Place at University – Student Guide
    Your Place at University Finding your way through the university application process A guide for Students Introduction Going to university is an exciting experience. However, the application process can be confusing, with so much information available and so many choices to make. This guide is not intended to provide step by step instructions on how to apply, but is instead a companion for you as you go through the application process. It aims to demystify some of the common areas of confusion and to help you avoid the pitfalls. Some students have to overcome significant barriers to reach university. Many universities view applications from these students in a positive way. They recognise that such applicants must have high levels of motivation and determination to achieve what they have achieved. In researching this guide we talked to staff in universities to understand what it is they really look for in potential students, as well as teachers and tutors in schools and colleges who support students through the process of applying to university. We have also held discussion groups with students who have gone through, or are getting ready to go through, the application process themselves. The key messages are clear: Research courses and universities thoroughly Apply early Make sure your application is the best that it can be We hope you find this guide useful and we wish you every success in your studies and future career. Acknowledgements Researched and written by Vanessa Wennerstrom from Aimhigher Kent and Medway. We are extremely grateful

  • Chief Executive's Annual Report
    Chief Executive’s Annual Report 2015/16 Having come to terms with the unexpected 2015 General Election outcome and welcomed the firming of policy direction and funding priorities, the Brexit vote and the consequent change of ministers re-created the air of uncertainty towards the end of the year! Some of the decisions that had been expected around apprenticeships, devolution of skills budgets, implementation of the Skills Plan and Higher Education reform have been delayed – add the range of possible implications of Brexit and one would need to be clairvoyant to plot the road ahead with any certainty. 1. Landex Board At the 2015 AGM held in November, Ann Turner and Meredydd David OBE were elected as joint Chairs, and Andrew Counsell was re-elected as Vice-Chair. Gillian May and David Henley were elected to the Board to replace Des Lambert OBE and Chris Ball respectively.
