About

The Education and Training Foundation awarded a contract to the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales for the co-design, development, and delivery of a professional development programme for Directors of Finance and Chief Financial Officers in the education and training sector.

The programme aimed to support these leaders in contributing more effectively to the strategic future of their organisations, particularly in light of recommendations from the government-initiated Area Review process, which included proposals for collaborative working between colleges, federations, and type A and type B mergers.

The programme was designed to help new appointees understand the complexities of college structures, ambitions, and relationships with stakeholders, partner organisations, and statutory bodies to ensure strong financial health, resilience to shocks, and sustainability.

The programme comprised a mix of residential sessions, online resources, face-to-face training, structured peer collaboration and review, and mentoring, with a degree of individualisation.

The contract value was £499,505.
