This document discusses the challenges facing universities in Wales due to funding cuts and changes. It notes that funding for Welsh universities will be reduced by 3.6-7.86% for 2011/12 compared to 2010/11. Capital funding is also being cut by 5.5-10.9% over the next few years. Universities may face issues with recruitment if fees rise to £9k and low-income students cannot afford it. The document advocates seeing opportunities in challenges, focusing on student experience, collaboration, using technology innovatively, and reducing costs through measures like shared services and outsourcing to adapt to new realities. It emphasizes the key roles of leadership, evidence-based decision making, advocacy, and organizations like

Transforming the Approach to Change Using Lean to increase participation and ...

Association of University Administrators

The Lean pilot at the University of Oxford focused on streamlining processes around acquiring and delivering scholarships. Through workshops and process mapping, inefficiencies were identified and quick wins implemented, such as altering invoicing and automating payment approvals. Longer-term, the pilot precipitated a team merger and redistribution of work. While Lean proved effective for targeted processes, broader change remains challenging due to Oxford's complex organizational structure.

What can a University learn from Apprenticeship Levy?

Association of University Administrators

This document discusses how universities can learn from the UK Apprenticeship Levy. The Apprenticeship Levy requires employers with an annual wage bill over £3 million to contribute 0.5% of their wage bill towards apprenticeship funding. Universities need to be agile and strategic in order to take advantage of opportunities from the levy. They should influence both employers and within their own institutions to develop degree apprenticeship programs that address skills shortages and retain apprentices as future students. Success will require complying with funding rules, strong employer partnerships, and collaboration both within and across universities.

The document discusses the evolving regulatory landscape for higher education in England. It notes the increasing diversity of higher education providers and students. The regulatory framework is being updated administratively through tools like the Register of HE Providers rather than legislative changes. Quality assessment approaches may also be revised following consultations. Regulations around student protection and specific course designation are important to maintain standards and equitable treatment as the sector becomes more diverse. Legislation may eventually be needed to address issues and properly regulate the changing HE landscape.

Changing the Conversation: Making the Case for Funding Deferred Maintenance [...

Sightlines

We are at a unique point in the history of managing higher education campuses. Two historic waves of building construction, 1955-1975, and 1995-2010 are increasing demands for capital investments at a time when resources available are limited. Traditional strategies for funding deferred maintenance (DM) will not work in the future. There is just too much backlog to be addressed at the time life cycles of newer buildings are coming due. Facilities leaders know that there is a cost of waiting to fund DM projects: higher capital costs, program disruption and higher operational costs. But making the case to senior management for funding facilities sooner rather than later is a challenge as they try to balance funding facilities vs. funding faculty salaries and increase student financial aid. In this session, participants learn from facilities leaders from California public and private campuses who have worked with Sightlines to package the DM needs into investment portfolios and successfully make the case for funding.

Devolution from the manchester college group's perspective 23rd january 2015

The Pathway Group

The document discusses the challenges facing the skills sector in the UK, including budget cuts, a constrained public purse, and more risk being placed on private providers. It notes that in 2015, the sector will be in deficit for the first time, and all political parties say there will be no new money after the upcoming election. The sector must focus on localism, fees, and improving quality in areas like English, maths, and technical skills. Devolution offers an opportunity, but the interconnected £1 billion skills system is inefficient, with overcapacity, stranded assets, and a disconnect between national policy and regional needs. The expectation is for the sector to do much more with much less through greater efficiency.

FDI and Superstar Spillovers: Evidence from Firm-to-Firm Transactions - Amit...

OECD CFE

FDI and Superstar Spillovers: Evidence from Firm-to-Firm Transactions Mary AMITI (FED New York, United States) Despite competition concerns over the increasing dominance of global corporations, many argue that productivity spillovers from multinationals to domestic firms justify pro-FDI policies. For the first time, we use firm-to-firm transaction data in a developed country to examine the impact of forming a new relationship with a multinational, and find a TFP increase of about 8% three or more years after the event. Sales to other buyers, trade and customer quality also increase. However, we also document that starting to supply other “superstar firms” such as those who heavily export or are very large also increases performance by similar amounts, even if the superstar is a non-multinational. Placebos on starting relationships with smaller firms and novel identification strategies relying solely on demand shocks to superstar firms support a causal interpretation. In addition to productivity spillovers, we document the transmission of “relationship capabilities” and “dating agency” effects as the increase in new buyers is particularly strong within the superstar firm’s existing network. These results suggest an important role for raising productivity through the supply chains of superstar firms regardless of their multinational status. Find out more at https://oe.cd/spl-mtg

Mapping location and co-location of industries at the neighborhood level - A...

OECD CFE

Mapping location and co-location of industries at the neighborhood level Alessandro ALASIA, Dennis HUYNH (Statistics Canada) In Canada, there is limited analysis on industry locations at the neighbourhood level; location and co-location of industries have been assessed primarily at the regional scale which results in an information gap for businesses. Recent evidence suggests that businesses do not just choose a city for their location, they choose specific business districts within a metropolitan area. Recent improvements in the geolocation of business microdata allow to address the information gap. This work, undertaken as part of the Business Data Lab and in collaboration with the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, is a first attempt to map industry locations at the neighbourhood level in major metropolitan areas of Canada. Using establishment-level microdata from the Business Register, we apply spatial kernel density estimations to identify neighbourhoods with high employment/revenue density for selected industries (2-digit NAICS) and industry clusters (grouping of 6-digits NAICS). The geographic delineation of business districts within metropolitan areas is the first step in understanding the evolution of industry location and co-location over time, and assessing local business dynamics at the neighbourhood level. Ultimately, these business districts can be analyzed in combination with additional data sources (e.g., mobility and road traffic) to derive further economic insights.

Advancing and democratizing business data in Canada- Patrick Gill & Stephen Tapp

OECD CFE

Democratizing data through innovative data governance and visualizations Patrick GILL, Stephen TAPP (Chambers of Commerce, Canada) Small organizations in Canada struggle with accessing and leveraging data on business conditions and trends. These organizations have expressed difficulty in knowing what is available, accessing it and converting this information into actionable insights. To empower small organizations with more business-related information and insights, the Canadian Chamber of Commerce has built a suite of free tools that merge and visualize traditional statistics with powerful high-frequency data sets (e.g. payments and mobility). This work is enabled by innovate data governance (e.g. a data trust) and a collaborative partnership with Statistics Canada. The Canadian Chamber of Commerce is continuing work with Statistics Canada to release more local business information available through the agency’s Business Register (e.g. the mapping of local business districts), and is exploring how Generative AI can support small organizations’ navigation and understanding of the business information it has curated.

Horizon 2020 - research networks across borders - Rupert Kawka

OECD CFE

Involvement of rural regions in European research networks Rupert KAWKA, Torsten SCHUNDER (Federal Office for Building and regional Planning, Germany) This study investigates the distribution of the European Union's Horizon 2020 funding programme on rural and urban regions between 2014 and 2020 and the resulting urban-rural links. Leveraging the Horizon 2020-database covering the 2014-20 programming period, which encompasses data on approximately 35,000 funded projects involving nearly 180,000 partners, the paper explores the participation of rural firms and organisations in the broader European research framework. By integrating the urban-rural classification of NUTS 3 regions, the research addresses key questions concerning the involvement of rural regions in Horizon 2020 projects, the structural differences in projects with and without rural participation, and the dynamics of urban-rural collaboration in research. The study further aims to identify potential clusters of rural innovation hubs across Europe and assess spatial disparities. Find out more at https://oe.cd/spl-mtg

How can the social and solidarity economy help refugees along their journey?

OECD CFE

Forcibly displaced people fleeing violent conflict and other forms of persecution find support from the social and solidarity economy (SSE) along their pathways, from their country of origin to asylum protection. The numbers are growing and new OECD work sheds light on how the specific values and characteristics of SSE entities provide high-quality responses to refugee needs and facilitate integration in host communities. The SSE can support access to rights, empowerment, social and labour market inclusion of refugees. Join this webinar with the UNHCR, SINGA and NESsT Poland to discover how the SSE plays a role in the steps along the way of refugee’s journey.
