This project addressed issues concerning the skills gap identified in the digital industry and businesses, reporting a shortage of technically skilled staff with the ‘right’ skills for the roles they require. Focusing on both Level 3 Technical and A Level courses, the project explored contextualisation, project-based learning and curriculum development through collaboration between  FE providers and employers. The project was broken down into 4 phases, the first was to understand the current challenges, the second focused on rebuilding the curriculum, the third stage developed high quality teaching materials ahead of the implementation of an enhanced curriculum in the final stage.
