Consider the aims of the IoT and how this can help shape excellence in technical and higher technical education
Reflect on what excellence looks like, from a student perspective with a focus on the Learner Journey

Consider how we can use Case Studies of best practice to showcase and promote what we do for students and employers
Explore how best practice
WHAT DOES HIGHER TECHNICAL EDUCATION MEAN? AND...
WHAT DOES IT
LOOK LIKE IN PRACTICE?
Why are we doing this?
What do employers say they need from us and more importantly our students?
Are students on IoT courses different, and if so how?
What positive aspects do IoT students bring to your course, you and the employers we work with?
Why are students choosing to study on a higher tech course? Do we know?
How can university partners add value through research informed practice?
WHAT DID WE SAY WE WOULD DO (SIGNED UP FOR)? IN THE IOT STUDENTS WILL:
•Work closely with local and national employers

GOOD PRACTICE EXAMPLES
LOOKING FORWARD…
What area or areas of good practice do you feel you could share with colleagues?
If we further define the Student Entitlement how could this support your recruitment into IoT?
What areas do you feel are less developed?
What will be your key take away from today’s discussions?
What do you think you will take forward in short term and mid-term?
What do you think we could do more of to support you to develop your IoT offer in your college or university?
Together we can build the region’s future talent pipeline.
