We are delighted that we will be joined by the Welsh Government Minister for Further and Higher Education Vikki Howells MS, Wales’ Chief Economist Dr Thomas Nicholls, and the Future Generations Commissioner Derek Walker.
The event will offer a time to reflect and network, and crucially look to the future together, as we embrace the transformational changes ahead in the way post-16 education is governed and delivered in Wales. The Conference will also provide an opportunity for delegates to consider what Wales needs from colleges in the future, and how we can collectively address the changing skills needs presented by global megatrends. ColegauCymru is committed to working with the Welsh Government and sector partners to deliver a stronger, greener and fairer Wales.
