Sector Advisory Groups

Over the previous four years, Preston College has seen an extensive growth in learner recruitment numbers, particularly in the rise of school leavers (16-18) and apprentices enrolling to the College. This growth is due to a number of varying factors, but none more so than the development and delivery of an employer responsive curriculum. This has evolved through extensive strategic partnerships working with local stakeholders and businesses; helping the College to create an industry relevant curriculum for our learners.
 

To continue this strategic focus, we are now aiming to formalise this invaluable stakeholder input through our Sector Advisory Groups. The groups will be developed at sector level and will enable employers, key stakeholders and College staff to meet and discuss current and future skills needs, whilst ensuring that the college curriculum is both relevant and impactful in supporting workforce development and a thriving local economy.

 We would like to gather interest at this stage from employers who would like to be a part of our Sector Advisory Groups, before formally creating these groups for each sector. If this would be something of interest to you, or you require further information, please click on the link below which will allow you to register your interest. Please note, at this point you are not committing and you are under no obligation to pursue your expression of interest.
 
On completion of the form, a member of our team will be in touch to discuss the next steps and explain the benefits that this will evoke for you and your business.
 
We very much look forward to your response and look forward to working with you as part of the Sector Advisory Group.
