Further education colleges in England can now apply to access support from The Open University to boost their higher technical education provision. The scheme is backed by £10 million of UK Government funding and is designed to increase the number of communities that can access high-quality, higher, technical education locally. Further education colleges who want to develop their higher technical education portfolio are invited to find out more and apply at https://www.open.ac.uk/business/he-with-fe. Two webinars are being hosted by the OU to provide information and guidance on the application process for further education colleges on Tuesday 19th July and Tuesday 2nd August, both at 11am.
