Opportunities with the NSAFS
Pathfinder Knowledge Transfer Project
In December 2008, the National Skills Academy for Financial Services (NSAFS) was awarded one of five, year-long prestigious knowledge transfer projects by the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS).
The Pathfinder Knowledge Transfer project came to an end in March of this year with several successful outcomes. The Pathfinder project’s objective was to support and provide innovative solutions for further education colleges to provide a better level of service to employers, particularly small and medium sized employers, to help them to innovate and develop their business.
Working with further education colleges within our training provider network, the NSAFS developed a specialised four step approach called Navigator. This includes a structured face to face fact-find with employers encompassing the Navigator Discovery Tool. Read more about Navigator.
As part of the project, we have also created Link, our knowledge portal, which hosts learning resources, industry information and more on key issues in the financial services sector and sub-sectors. Link is still in development so watch out for more news on this website.
