  • Follow up to Inquiry Into EU Funding Opportunities 2014-2020
    Follow up to Inquiry into EU Funding Opportunities 2014-2020 Submission to NAW Enterprise & Business Committee October 2015 ColegauCymru CollegesWales Uned 7 Cae Gwyrdd Unit 7 Cae Gwyrdd Greenmeadow Springs Greenmeadow Springs Tongwynlais, Caerdydd CF15 7AB Tongwynlais, Cardiff CF15 7AB Ff: 029 2052 2500 T: 029 2052 2500 E: [email protected] E: [email protected] W: www.colegaucymru.ac.uk W: www.collegeswales.ac.uk Introduction 1. ColegauCymru welcomes the opportunity to submit evidence to the Enterprise and Business Committee’s follow-up inquiry into EU funding opportunities 2014- 2020. ColegauCymru represents the 141 further education (FE) colleges and FE institutions in Wales.2 In 2011/12, there were 167,715 individual students attending college and 217,815 enrolments.3 2. Colleges have been working to maximise the benefits Wales gains from EU funding programmes for two decades. Colleges have participated in a range of programmes designed to promote the upskilling of the labour force in Wales and to reduce social exclusion. It is part of colleges’ core business to promote Wales’ economic revival through an enhanced skills base and the transfer of innovation and technology to business and industry. 3. Wales’ position on the western periphery of the EU has enabled it to participate in some of the constituent programmes of INTERREG in its previous phases. The opportunity to participate in the 2014-2020 period in the Ireland-Wales Cross Border programme, the Atlantic Area programme and the North West Europe Transnational programme present further opportunities for Wales to benefit from these important programmes. 4. ColegauCymru itself has taken a lead role in supporting colleges to engage with these programmes, particularly the EU lifelong learning programmes such as Leonardo (and from 2014, Erasmus+).
