Roadmap for Employment – Academic Partnerships – REAP

The aim of this collaborative project is for the research, development and validation of a higher Education / Employment Partnership Model and Roadmap. Many examples of excellent interactions and partnerships currently exist but these are isolated successes and not institutionally embedded in the way that HEIs “do business”.

The project aims to:

• Identify the learning needs within workplaces
• Compile a comprehensive plan for partnership between employers and HEI’s (Higher Education Institute).
• Verify the effectiveness of the strategy through a range of collaborative activities.

These activities will provide a gateway to integrate and rationalise complementary initiatives and offer a single simple, relevant, inclusive framework to facilitate interaction with the workplace.

This project consortium proposes to change the nature of the relationship between the education provider and the workplace by developing a model of cooperation that recognises and values the needs and contributions of the worker and workplace.

The partners in the REAP project are Dublin Institute of Technology, University College Cork, Waterford Institute of Technology, National University of Ireland, Galway, Institute of Technology Tallaght, Athlone Institute of Technology, Institute of Technology, Sligo led by Cork Institute of Technology. You can visit the REAP website by clicking here
