Caroline F-S updated members on the proposed student led teaching awards and presented a case for staging the first event in the Autumn term 2015.  The timing of this event would enable greater commitment from the working group due to anticipated academic pressures during the summer term 2015.

Currently, there are 8 people engaged in the project and to date, 2 meetings have taken place.  The group include Simon Merchant (BASS) who will support the IT and marketing aspects of the project.

Steve J asked that a proposal be submitted by the working group to the SEG outlining the scale and scope of the event.  This will enable decisions to be made regarding the level of support to be offered by the University Centre as well as the approval of College logos and branding as part of any advertising.

Action:  Proposal to be submitted to Steve J via SEG.  C F-S  to pass Steve J's details on to Simon Merchant so that contact can be made.

Chris R explained to members about the University Centre's involvement in the national Strategic Enhancement Programme co-ordinated by the Higher Education Academy (HEA).  The University Centre is one of 32 institutions across the UK to be selected to participate in this programme.  Our project aim is to develop an employability framework which accurately reflects student and employer need.

Chris and Steve J attended the first HEA programme meeting in London on 19 October.  A working group has been formed and will meet with an HEA consultant in early December to discuss further developments.

Paul Grinnell reinforced the likely developments for the region as a result of the Mearine Energy Park approval and the Lincolnshire Lakes Project.

Steve J is now a member of the Humber LEP Employability and Skills Working Group, representing the voice of higher education.  It is hoped that an employability framework can be aligned with any Humber LEP employability initiatives / frameworks
