Higher Education in Further Education (HE in FE)
The work of the Higher Education in Further Education (HE in FE) Enhancement Programme is guided and supported by a Reference Group comprised of representatives from colleges and organisations with a stake in the sector.
Our Main Aim is to support colleges of further education offering programmes of higher education by:
- improving levels of communication and awareness within the HE in FE sector.
- assisting colleges to draw on expertise from the Academy's subject centres
- gathering, developing and disseminating examples of effective practice of teaching, learning and assessment within the sector.
- supporting scholarly activity in and around the area of HE in FE
- supporting and informing the professional development and recognition of staff in the sector providing a forum for policy debate and response
We support college staff and managers through regular events, workshops and briefings dedicated to HE in FE. Working closely with other agencies and academic subject specialists, we provide a supportive, informative service promoting awareness and professional development across the sector.
