Keep up-to-date with our vision to bring a sector leading Institute of Technology to Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent.
Backed by training providers, NSCG, Keele University, Burton & South Derbyshire College and Axia Solutions, alongside key employer partners; Dell, Hitachi, Moog, Siemens and St Modwen Logistics, the £16M Institute of Technology (IoT) development will bring together industry, education and research to jointly design and develop education and training opportunities aligned to the skills needed by employers, the local, regional and national economy and Government priorities for technical education.
Utilising a hub and spoke approach, the IoT will serve the communities of Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent from a number of key locations and will see employers and academia working collaboratively to widen participation in targeted STEM areas, with a focus on manufacturing and engineering across a wide range of specialisms, including the built environment, health sciences, sustainability and digital technology/innovation.
Jason Lancaster, DIRECTOR OF INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY & EMPLOYER PARTNERSHIPS.
An experienced strategic leader, Jason will be responsible for working with local employers and education providers to turn the current Institute of Technology vision into reality. His dual role also sees him oversee all aspects of employer partnerships for NSCG, including its apprenticeship and work-based learning provision.
If you or your business are interested in being involved at any level, be that with work placements, curriculum development or even coming along to speak to staff and learners, we'd love to hear from you.
