CREATE compares face-to-face training with on-line training for OTs in completing the AHP Health and Work Report (AHP H&WR). Method Mixed methods study. Phase 1, OTs will co-design an on-line training resource. A standardised face-to-face group-based training session will also be developed based on the same content. Phase 2, a feasibility study will be conducted. Thirty OTs will either attend face-to-face group training or access the on-line resource.

  • Mapping the Architecture of Economic Development Policy and Strategy Across the Midlands Engine Pan‐Region
    Nottingham • Business School Nottingham Trent University Observatory MAPPING THE ARCHITECTUREOF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTP OLICYA ND STRATEGYACROSS THE MIDLANDSENGINE MAY2021 Mapping the architecture of economic development policy and strategy across the Midlands Engine pan‐region Anne Green, Will Rossiter, Abigail Taylor, Charlotte Hoole, Rebecca Riley, Konstantinos Karagounis, Alice Pugh City‐REDI / WMREDI, University of Birmingham Nottingham Business School, Nottingham Trent University May 2021 1 60 second overview The Midlands has a complex institutional architecture at local and sub‐regional levels, involving statutory and non‐statutory organisations and partnerships. We undertake an audit of extant local and sub‐regional economic development strategies and plans. Our research (an audit of Local Enterprise Partnership [LEP] and local authority [LA] strategies, a literature review and intelligence gathering amongst local stakeholders with responsibilities for economic development) focused on the content of strategies and the nature of targets presented in them. It concluded that there is a varied picture at local and sub‐regional levels as to whether strategies include targets and the nature of those targets, so presenting considerable challenges for the aggregation of targets across areas. There is some degree of consistency between the aspirational targets of LEPs around productivity and those of the Midlands Engine for the pan‐Midlands region. A lack of uniformity in information included in economic development strategies means it is very unclear whether local/sub‐regional actions and ambitions are sufficient to meet strategic ambitions at the Midlands scale. Our research also suggests that the geographically uneven and complex nature of layers of local and sub‐regional governance with a mix of statutory and non‐statutory organisations and responsibilities, that have developed in a relatively ad hoc way, pose difficulties for gaining a clear line of sight between sub‐national and national policies.
