In 2001 I worked to create the first ever Training Needs Analysis for the Scottish Further Education Sector - we used this to drive up skills
across the sector.
The survey now happens about every three years and tracks the ability of teachers , admin support , learner support staff and senior managers to use technology effectively in the delivery of services - it is worth a look - it shows you skills that are expected from all levels of staff in the FE sector when it comes to using ICT to deliver their services including those needed by senior managers for strategic planning.
I think it is a great model both for measuring progress, devising training to fill the skills gaps and just raising general awareness of the ICT skillset that staff need at all levels in education.
