The IEP Summit 2024
Building Tomorrow's Employability Support
Thank you to our sponsors
More than just seminars
The IEP Summit is not just another sector event; it’s a unique opportunity for sector leaders and key figures to connect, discuss, and share best practices. The Summit offers a unique blend of formal seminars and informal networking sessions, creating an environment conducive to meaningful conversations and the forging of valuable connections.
Bridging borders in employability
Building on the success of the past four years, the IEP Summit 2024 is committed to promoting international collaboration. The Summit aims to maximise engagement from our international colleagues and partners, ensuring a diverse range of voices and perspectives to shape the future of employability.
Shaping the future of employability
The IEP Summit is not just a gathering; it’s a platform for sector professionals to discuss, debate, and shape the strategic agenda of the employability sector. It provides a space for learning from experienced colleagues, offering insights and solutions to the challenges facing the sector now and in the future.
Your opportunity to contribute
The Summit is for anyone passionate about employability services, policy, and strategy. It offers a unique chance to have your say, contribute to the sector’s growth, build new business opportunities, and partner with like-minded individuals. By participating, you actively contribute to the development of effective practices that benefit both practitioners and participants.
"Thank you for another sensational Summit"
Another year, another sensational Summit – and what a day it was! Building on the success of the past four years, our annual Summit returned with a bang, bringing together sector leaders and key figures to RSA House to connect, celebrate, share best practice and discuss this year’s IEP Summit theme: ‘Building Tomorrow’s Employability Support’. Thank you to all of our event sponsors – NCFE, The Digital College, Coyne Recruitment and our evening sponsors, Whitehead Ross Education and Consulting and Get Set UK – and our speakers, panellists and wonderful chair, Sam Avanzo Windett MIEP, who did an exceptional job of pulling everything together with her reflections and key knowledge on topics discussed and, of course, a huge thank you also to all our delegates who travelled far and wide to make this such a special gathering once again.
"Go where your passions take you"
We finish today on and upbeat note. I think that’s emblematic of us all and why we very much are a ‘can do’ sector.Yes, there are big challenges out there. But knowing what some of these issues are is definitely a good step in the right direction.
Along the way we’ve heard about things that are happening and things we can do – individually, within our own organisations, and collectively.
Sometimes the range of things we can do feels a bit overwhelming. How do we start? How do we do this?
When I look back at the work done over the last 5 years, from simple conversations in this very place, we collectively, with you guys, have moved a long way forward on a lot of topics and have started to influence decision makers and things are really happening.
It may not be, and it cannot be, that we have silver bullets. But constantly having these conversations, getting engaged with something you are passionate about is vital to progress. I talk to a lot of Fellows about this – make sure to go where your passions take you.
Start a conversation because these then become things like Quality Improvement Frameworks and they turn into tangible things that can make a difference.
