Education & Training Case Studies
Case studies provide some relevant insight into how Fortis Consulting personnel have delivered value for our Education & Training clients.
Our wealth of experience in shaping education and training solutions are outlined as follows in terms of some relevant and recent case studies.
Case Study 1: Migrant Pathways to Employment
Project Scope: The project was delivered for a large government agency, and involved providing overseas trained migrants with skills recognition and gap training in mainstream vocational areas with industry specific English language support.
Services Provided: Fortis staff identified industries that had a need for experienced, qualified staff and matched them with the qualifications and experience of migrants. We supervised the course design that allowed migrants with the relevant qualifications and experience to reduce the time required to upgrade their qualifications, skills and language, while achieving the required industry standards.
Project Outcomes: The Pathways program overcame the wastage that occurs when industry has a skill shortage while there are skilled migrants who are unable to capitalise on their skills due to cultural and language barriers. The project provided a key to preventing under-employment and unemployment for migrants from non-English speaking countries.
Case Study 2: TAFE - Establishing AQTF
Project Scope: This project, delivered for a large TAFE college, required careful consideration of the professional standards, policies and procedures required by Australian Qualifications Training Framework (AQTF) and developing the momentum and commitment of teachers and administrators to meet the rigorous demands for implementation.
Services Provided: The project included the planning, development and implementation required to meet the audit requirements to obtain Registered Training Organisation (RTO) status.
Project Outcomes: The TAFE School gained an unqualified audit result and Registered Training Organisation status.
Case Study 3: University Optimisation Research
Project Scope: A large university required research into its administrative performance measured against national and global benchmarks. They required a detailed report outlining key gaps and a solution blueprint for addressing these gaps.
Services Provided: Fortis delivered a robust diagnostic which measured and benchmarked administrative performance. This was followed by a detailed gap analysis and solution blueprint, including detailed implementation and benefits realisation plan.
Project Outcomes: The University approved the business case which enabled the implementation of key recommended improvements which led to improved service levels and several million dollars of annual savings.
Case Study 4: TAFE Research Model
Project Scope: A large TAFE college required assistance to develop a research model for its training delivery programs. Key VET sector data (both economic and non-economic) was required from a variety of sources as input into the model (helping to identify industry trends and requirements for changes in training programs).
Services Provided: Fortis staff provided a basis for forecasting current trends and providing a relevant split for future training needs.
Project Outcomes: Ultimately the research model provided key information to the TAFE college in the future mix of courses and the key development areas. Furthermore the model was readily updated and maintained by college staff.
