Meeting current and future needs
New CE of The Bedford College Group, Yiannis Koursis OBE said:
“Our college is one of the leading providers of apprenticeships in the UK and the Southeast Region. Our programs are designed based on the latest Labour Market Intelligence and we work with almost 1,000 businesses to ensure that our courses meet current and future needs. We work in close partnership with businesses and provide essential elements of our curricula in consultation with them. We take pride in being a provider of workforce development programs and apprenticeships and involve ourselves in the business world.”
“Our Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance is robust and helps all young people and adults to understand the huge career potential and future life opportunities available through studying technical qualifications, particularly the value of T Levels and Apprenticeships. At a national level, our Executive Director of Apprenticeships, Debbie Houghton, and I were invited to a meeting at No. 10 to discuss how FE Colleges promote the value of apprenticeships and technical education. We explored what more we could do to ensure the UK achieves its vision.”
