To support NFEC members, network and friends a series of Online seminars are being scheduled for the remainder of 2020 and into 2021. Focusing on Engineering, Technology & Science Education.

NFEC's next Seminar will be the first in a series covering the Development and Introduction of Engineering and Manufacturing "T" levels now an Awarding Organisation has been appointed:

What are "T" Levels and what will their introduction mean to us?

Scheduled for 09:00am on Thursday 10th December

Progress to date, what subject areas are already introduced?

• What comes next and when?
• Roles and Responsibilities of the AO Partners EAL and C&G.
• What are the stages of development?
• What are the current milestones for 2020/21 and 2021/22 and beyond?
• When will they impact on me and what preparation will be needed?

A further "T" Level Seminar is planned for Thursday 14th January 2021 (with further dates to be announced)

These sessions will address:

• Qualification structures, examinations and assessment -the shape of the fully approved qualifications.
• Experiences from phase 1 and 2 "Early adopters"
• A later session will seek to address the 45 day work placement requirement - which is commonly considered to be the biggest barrier to T Level take up by both providers and students. We are looking for speakers for this event that could also talk about their (hopefully successful) experience in securing such work experience placements within the engineering sector? (Can you join this discussion or recommend someone that we can approach?)

Chaired and led by NFEC Directors, we encourage you to bring your experience and questions for an interactive discussion. Written questions are invited in advance and on the day.
