Job description

University College Birmingham is seeking an Apprenticeship Quality Manager to lead apprenticeship-specific quality assurance and improvement across our provision. Joining our developing Centre for Apprenticeships, you will have the opportunity to shape practice, support colleagues and strengthen the experience of apprentices and employers.

Your remit will focus on the features that make an apprenticeship a coherent and individualised learning journey: effective initial assessment, training planning informed by starting points, meaningful employer involvement, purposeful progress reviews, coordinated support and preparation for successful completion.

The role focuses on the quality of the apprentice journey and experience, complementing the established academic quality assurance responsibilities of Schools and the University’s quality teams.

Through observation, sampling, case review and feedback, you will evaluate how effectively these activities support learning and progress. You will work with colleagues to turn findings into practical improvements and evaluate the difference they make.

Alongside assurance activity, you will develop quality frameworks, guidance and resources, coordinate staff development and standardisation, and strengthen how apprentice and employer feedback informs our work. You will also contribute to self-assessment, improvement planning and inspection readiness.

Working closely with Schools, progress coaches, Operations and institutional quality colleagues, you will bring specialist apprenticeship expertise and support shared ownership of quality across the University.

We are looking for someone who combines sound quality judgement with the ability to build relationships and improve practice. You will bring experience of evaluating and strengthening apprenticeship-specific practice, with a clear understanding of how its different elements work together to support apprentice success.

You will be confident developing quality frameworks, drawing balanced conclusions from evidence and evaluating impact. You will also be able to challenge constructively, coach colleagues and translate requirements into approaches that work in practice.

This is an opportunity to shape an important function within an evolving service, with a clear focus on the quality of apprentices’ learning, support and outcomes.

For an informal discussion about the role, please contact Liz Myatt, Head of Apprenticeships, at emyatt@ucb.ac.uk.

Shenzhen and other cities in China’s Greater Bay Area are leveraging the higher education prowess of neighbouring Hong Kong in an effort to develop their own world-leading universities.
Prestigious Hong Kong institutions have set up a series of branch campuses in cities including Shenzhen, Guangzhou and&nbsp;Dongguan, which the Chinese authorities hope will propel the region into the top echelons of global higher education.
Times Higher Education’s Asia-Pacific editor John Ross visited one of these youthful institutions, the Chinese <a data-mz="" data-module="podcast-body" data-position="body" href="/world-university-rankings/university-hong-kong">University of Hong Kong</a>, Shenzhen (CUHK-SZ). Just 12 years after its launch it already boasts 13,000 students studying across eight schools, with ambitions to grow to 25,000 students when its new medical school – currently under construction – opens.
On this week’s episode of News Talks, Campus editor Miranda Prynne asks John about his impressions of Shenzhen and the Greater Bay Area of China – and gets a colourful description of the CUHK-SZ campus.
They discuss the Chinese authorities’ ambition to develop a regional higher education offering across the Greater Bay Area in line with its economic and technological advancement, the role that Hong Kong’s globally recognised institutions are playing in this effort and whether Shenzhen and neighbouring cities will ultimately take over as a global hub for higher education.
