The TRANSFORM Programme (TRaining ANd Skills FOR Manchester) was aimed at providing local people from across Greater Manchester with local opportunities, by highlighting careers in, and giving participants the opportunity to experience, the Further Education (FE) sector. Delivered by InspirED Associates, it was funded by the UK Government’s Community Renewal Fund (UKCRF), through Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) as a ‘Lead Authority’ and was particularly aimed at supporting long-term unemployed and economically inactive individuals back to work by providing work experience, training and job search support. The programme enjoyed significant success, as evidenced by the programme evaluation, completed by the Education and Training Foundation and the InspirED Associates team.
The Talent to Teach in FE programme raised awareness of Further Education (FE) teaching as a career option among second year and final year undergraduates and postgraduate students, as well as individuals who were unemployed, underemployed, or facing redundancy. Participants undertook a 40-hour placement with an FE provider, introducing them to the world of FE and giving them an understanding of the skills, expertise and qualifications required to teach in the sector. The programme ran from 2019 to 2023, with more than 1,200 participants completing placements. Funded by the Department for Education (DfE), through the Education and Training Foundation, InspirED Associates delivered the highly successful final year of the programme, as well as the final programme evaluation. Further details of the programme can be found on the ETF's website, along with the final evaluation.
InspirED Associates was commissioned By Universities UK to evaluate the impact of the current suite of scholarships available to international students in Wales, through the 'Global Wales' project. This involved desktop research, meetings with Glabal Wales (Universities Wales) team members, surveys of former and existing scholars, interviews and focus groups with university representatives and scholarship partners and case studies. The InspirED Associates Evaluation Team then made recommendations regarding adaptations and expansions to the current portfolio to further enhance the impact.
