Since investing in Lightcast’s labour market research tool for the Further Education sector – FE Analyst – in 2023, Bath College has been seeking to use the insights they are gleaning from it to shape a number of key operations across the institution. These include:
• Embedding skills data across the whole college from course design to careers advice
• Using insights on local employer demand to feed into their curriculum planning
• Applying market insights to provide an evidence-base for numerous initiatives
In this webinar, Lightcast’s Alex Kennedy will be joined by the College’s Assistant Principal - Quality & Performance, Sam Kenny, to talk about how they are using the data, what are some of the challenges that have arisen, and ultimately how is this approach helping the College to fulfil its mission.
