Mechanisms for sustainable employer engagement

Lead Institution: Plymouth University

This is a sub-project of Progressing from labour market intelligence to HE level provision that is well supported by employers

Project Summary

Plymouth University's Colleges Faculty, working along with Weymouth College, sought to create a toolkit of customisable resources to facilitate employer engagement in the STEM sector. Guides have been produced to support staff working directly with employers, and/or staff managing or supporting staff working with employers. The resources are aimed primarily at college and university support staff who are new to this area of work.

Guides have been produced that deal with specific needs [both current and historic] identified by two organisations,  a university faculty and a further education college in their work to facilitate employer engagement; with specific focus on the STEM sector. Contributions have also been made by colleagues involved from partner SW HE STEM projects. However, all guides are designed to be customisable for use by any educational body and could be adapted for use within a wide range of employer engagement contexts.

This is one of six sub-projects that make up the Marchmont Observatory-led, SW HE STEM project ‘Progressing from labour market intelligence to HE level provision that is well supported by employers’.
