Welcome!


Thank you for visiting feconnect - the social network for those working with data in the further education system.
This site has been developed by the
information authority secretariat to provide a platform that can bring everyone within further education, skills and training together. This will enable better consultation and the development of a community through which shared problems can be solved.
One of the key aims for the site is to provide a platform through which we can manage the change process for the individualised learner record. We want to make this as open and transparent a process as possible - and one in which anyone can have their say.
The
information authority team will be facilitating this network to ensure that the most is made of any conversations and discussions, by drawing the right people together and ensuring those with knowledge to share are matched up with those who need information. If you have any queries, then your first port of call should be our friendly community facilitators
Dave and
Paul - feel free to discuss any issues you have with them.
This is your online community. Please experiment with the functionality available, and let us know any suggestions you have to improve things.
I look forward to talking to you all in the future,
Una Bennett
Head of the information authority

Hi, Excuse my ignorance, but doesn't the Provider Number ( UPIN) or UK Provider Reference Number link to the type of provider. ?

I agree that this is a very important change to capture data about National Skills Academies. As the lead for the NSA for Creative & Cultural Skills I fully support this proposal which will enable funders and NSA staff to provide an accurate record of the impact of their programmes in line with other public funded systems.
