Change is a constant in today’s world and global megatrends have far-reaching implications for the future of economies, environments, and societies.
Our Strategic goals are inline with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs), a collection of global goals for addressing the world’s most pressing challenges, are benchmarked and mapped across our priorities and goals.
Creating Changemaking Cirriculums is the first of our five Strategic Goals that underpin our vision and are fundamental to our success.
Whilst never losing sight of our values, they set out our intent, and the integrated actions we will deliver.
Our Strategic Goals are broken down into six smaller actions to give more direction within each initiative. We will target focussed investment for sustainable growth. To do so we will;
Accelerate our Financial Strength and Investment Planning whilst demonstrating value for money and sustainability.
Transform our social impact through Community Place-based Delivery, nuancing provision informed by local need, whilst shaping regional skill strategy to address geographic disparity and inequity.
Reimagine and reshape our approach to Regional Adult Skills Programmes, responding to the priorities of devolution, priority sectors and essential employment skills.
Strengthen student progression at all levels through a renewed focus on Lifelong Learning and flexibility to upskill and reskill for a changing economy.
Enhance and invest in Technical Higher Education for strategically important sectors and ensure graduates are well prepared for global employment opportunities.
Advance our focus on Poverty and Future Planet progressing sustainability, procurement, resource efficiency, and the deployment of secure and effective technologies.
Our Strategic Plan 2025-2030 and exciting new Strategic Visions are rooted in a fundamental belief that together, we can make a positive difference and build better futures for a changing world.
