Challenges & Benefits

Challenges Benefits NCI’s 1st Apprenticeship submission outcome: “Not Satisfactory” We developed a better programme!

Challenges Benefits Why did we fail? Developing a “Satisfactory” QQI submission Rigorous full scale review of the programme QQI Evaluation Report specified criteria “Unsatisfactory”

Challenges Benefits QQI Apprenticeship documentation is now Clarity on Apprenticeship QA For example: Award Title Professional Award Type Descriptors QQI Topic Specific Guidelines QQI Apprenticeship documentation is now “Satisfactory”

Challenges Benefits Getting to grips with new elements in QQI process For example: International comparisons More informed, more ideas, more support & justification for QA approach

Challenges Benefits Table 2: Mapping MIPLOss “I've been wondering what that special place in hell looks like, for those who promoted …..” It makes the QQI Panel ‘easier’

Table 2

Challenges Benefits Greater industry participation Which leads to more positive reception at QQI panel Development of Work-based learning modules

Challenge for QQI “Judge us on the quality of our products, and not the quantity of our paperwork.” Michel Van Mellaerts

Thank you for listening!

Owen O’Donnell Kerry Education and Training Board

Benefits Challenges Synergies and linkages arising from the QA practices, (organisational capacity, cooperation with industry, with ETBs and with employers on the ground) Standardisation of Delivery Nationally, Instructor led communities of practice (equal experience for the apprentice and Qualification Confidence) Multiple Key Stakeholders, common understanding of new QA processes across multiple ETBs and CSG. Development of new QA governance. Managing governance of QA across multiple providers, (ETBs & Non-ETBs) Structures for Monitoring, Review and Continuous Improvement
