The Impact Directory is designed to be a guide for the growing number of educators, employers and individuals looking to find programmes that are aligned to the Skills Builder Framework and approach. We will be looking to promote the Directory and the programmes in it across the Partnership and through our communications and case studies.
The Directory will include all programmes which have achieved one of the four Impact Levels, and have been validated by the team at Skills Builder. At the end of each academic year, all programmes will have to complete a short information request, including information about usage of that programme in the previous year, in order to maintain their place in the Directory.
All programmes that achieve an Impact Level will also receive a kitemark which they can use to advertise their recognition in the Directory and on their programme materials.
Information in the Directory
Information in the Directory
The Directory will include a short summary of your organisation and the programme itself, the Impact Level that has been achieved, and a link for interested individuals to find out more.
Each programme will also include additional information to make it easy for interested individuals to find a programme that best fits their needs:
Impact Level achieved: Level 1, 2, 3, or 4
The target group: Age of participants
Geographical availability: Countries of focus; regions within the UK (if applicable)
Programme delivery: Online; in-person; or a blend of the two
Programme access: Through a school or college; through an organisation; through individual self-serving online; other
Skill focus: Which of the eight essential skills the programme covers
As part of the process, we will also ask you for the number of participants in the programme in the previous year. This will not be shared in the Directory, but will be used to gauge the reach of the Skills Builder approach.
In July each year, we will ask you to review any of your programmes in the Directory, to check that the information is still up-to-date and to confirm the latest participant numbers. Inclusion in the Impact Directory is dependent on maintaining annual membership of the Partnership, and providing this annual data so we can track the reach of Skills Builder-aligned programmes.
