New project for the new year
January 2012
i-graduate responded to an invitation to tender from the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) who was looking to employ an agency to manage the Destination of Leavers from Higher Education (DLHE) survey for UK further education (FE) colleges. The DLHE is designed to collect information on what leavers are doing roughly six months after qualifying from their higher education (HE) course, e.g. if they are employed or engaged in further study, and has been in place in further education colleges since 2008-09.
i-graduate has been named the winning bidder and will start work on this project in the new year. It will involve collecting information from 22,000 graduates through approximately 125 FE colleges.
