Developing a Qualifications Strategy
In September 2007 SFEDI commenced work on a qualifications strategy for business enterprise (people who start and develop small businesses) and business support (those that support them).
A major research exercise will review existing and collect new evidence on the people running and supporting small businesses and their learning and development needs. If you have any reports, data or other sources of information that could be relevant please notify nigel@stratagia.co.uk
Further information on this major project will appear here shortly.
SFEDI Standards Work 2007
The annual standards plan for 2007 seeks to work within the structure of the existing SFEDI standards. It includes:
Additional
Business Enterprise standards for
- running a home based
business
- family businesses and succession planning
- informal
finance and ethnic minority owned businesses
- female business
owners and managing the work-life balance
- international trade
We are currently organising focus groups and interviews to inform the standards development in each of these areas. If this work is of interest please contact caroline@stratagia.co.uk
We are also developing good practice case studies of effective practice based on the SFEDI Enterprise Essentials. For further information please contact nigel@stratagia.co.uk
Business
Information standards
These standards are intended primarily
for staff in information and similar roles in business support
organisations. Following a range of discussion groups and interviews
we will shortly commence work on drafting these standards. For
