Title | Lifelong learning and workforce development design – towards a new generation of educational planning tools |
Authors | Dafoulas, G., Barn, B., Abeysinghe, G. and Zheng, Y. |
Abstract | Recent developments in workforce development, the volatile environment of graduate employability and the economic downturn of the past few years have led to the need of careful educational planning and curriculum design. The MUSKET (Middlesex University Skills and Education Planning Tools) project aims at supporting employer engagement and workforce planning requirements by providing a CRM based integrated view of employer based, professional and tertiary sector education. Funded by the JISC institutional innovation programme, the MUSKET project delivers models that will span employer engagement and course information in a unified and integrated manner. The project deliverables allow non-technical specialists to import MS Word documents containing course descriptions from professional providers, employer specific training and HE and provide semantic mark-up to enable exporting. The project also supports the defining of mappings and relationships between different sources and types of course information to support employer-led learner route planning. |
