2. Information: upcoming roadshow for apprenticeship main providers
Main providers currently listed on the register of apprenticeship training providers (RoATP) have been invited to register for one of four roadshows that are taking place in September, in London, Bristol, Birmingham and Manchester.
The roadshows will help providers prepare for the transition of smaller employers to the apprenticeship service and will give them an opportunity to tell us about concerns, support needs, and how the ESFA can help.
Invitations were emailed to the address associated with RoATP registration. If you think that you should have been invited, email apprenticeship.providers@education.gov.uk and, if you are eligible, we will send another invitation.
3. Your feedback: can you help us with our new FE staff data service?
We are researching into a new service that will collect FE staff data. We want to hear from anyone in a HR role of an FE training organisation to help us to shape the product before we start.
If you can help, please email us at FE.HR@education.gov.uk with the subject line “Research” and details of when you’re free to talk, and we’ll get back to you.
