NZIST - publication of work stream reports

The reports from the workstreams set up to inform the establishment of the NZ Institute of Skills and Technology (NZIST) are now available.

A very short timeframe is provided for feedback by 15th of June.

The reports are from the 7 workstreams which include:
- the learner journey mapping
- a model to engage with employers and communities
- education services and online learning (2 workstreams into 1 report) of most relevance to my current work as it proposes centralisation of much of of the work of my current section - programme and curriculum design and online delivery
- work-based learning centred around the merger of Industry Training Organisations (ITOs) and the polytechnics (ITPs) and how Workforce Development Councils will work.
- new academic architecture - setting out the academic board/committees structure and reporting lines.
- international education.

Feedback is invited for the direction of the various proposed models, frameworks and structures including agreement/non-agreement, gaps and issues.

Will digest the relevant reports over the weekend and do a summary next week.
