Dear All,
THETO Seminar
Please find below details of Promoting Modern Apprenticeships (MAs)
and National Traineeships (NTs) in Higher Education. To be held at
CVCP in London on Tuesday, 21st September, 1999
Apologies if you receive this more than once.
*******************************************
Background
The Higher Education sector, to date, has not exploited in any
positive way the use of Modern Apprentices and/or National
Traineeships. Many institutions have an ageing workforce and urgently
require to be recruiting staff at lower age levels. Some institutions
cite a number of reasons for the lack of take-up of MAs and NTs,
whilst others either already run or are considering their
introduction.
THETO, being the NTO for higher education, believes that MAs and NTs
can play a major role in bringing 'new blood' into certain categories
of staff and is keen to promote these throughout the education sector.
This seminar will be run in collaboration with the University of
Southampton.
Aims
The seminar will give colleagues an opportunity to hear about MA and
NT Programmes in operation in the sector. It will also look at what is
involves in establishing such programmes and how they can benefit the
institution.
