Sector Qualifications Strategy - SEMTA
Continued...
SEMTA is working in close partnership with the regulatory authorities and other partners to achieve this long-term goal.
Sector Skills Agreements (SSA) are designed to deliver action to meet priority skill needs that will drive improved business performance. They provide a means whereby employers and employees in each sector can identify skills and productivity needs, the action they will take to meet those needs, and how they will collaborate with providers of education and training so that skills demand can directly shape the nature of supply. For this reason, the SEMTA Qualifications Strategy feeds into and supports the SSA. Consequently the various strands of research that inform the SSA will also be embedded in the SQS.
The SEMTA Qualifications Strategy has currency across the United Kingdom.
The SEMTA Qualifications Strategy will be kept under regular review and subject to systematic evaluation: it will be updated to reflect national and UK-wide strategic qualifications developments.
The SEMTA Qualifications Strategy sets out a vision for a sustainable system of qualifications that is accessible to all and will form the framework for delivery. The SQS may inform the rationalisation of accredited qualifications in the future, and will influence funding bodies across the UK in the distribution of public funds to support the delivery of accredited qualifications.
