Let’s Work Together to Train your Future Workforce

South Devon College is excited to inform you of a collaborative project called the Strategic Development Fund (SDF) that aims to work in partnership with employers to help train their future workforce.

We are offering local employers the opportunity to put staff forward for a fully funded level 3 qualification in Education and Training in order to give them the skills and knowledge to share their specialist expertise with your future workforce.

On completion of training, the College aspires to work with industry experts as associate lecturers to assist us in designing and delivering curriculum that exactly matches the training needs of your organisation.

The Department of Education’s (DfE) funding available through the SDF will support South Devon College to better meet your needs and foster local innovation and economic growth.

Project Purpose

Here at South Devon College, we want you to join us in creating a future of skilled professionals for your industry. With our expertise and resources, we can provide the highest quality, industry-relevant education. However, to ensure our curriculum is up-to-date and effective as possible, we need the insight and experience of real-world employers. That’s where our employer partnerships come in.

The project sets out to increase the number of industry professionals beginning teaching vocational skills by developing and offering short training programmes. By offering Continued Professional Development (CPD), there is ample opportunity to bring together employers, including from SME businesses, and the local FE providers to share best practices.

By collaborating with us to then design and deliver specialised training, local businesses can ensure a steady stream of talented individuals with the relevant skills for their workforce as soon as they finish their studies.
