These changes will help create an effective FE workforce with the power to drive change in every other sector by raising the skills of all workers, throughout their lives. Managed by Lifelong Learning UK (LLUK), the Catalyst programme encompasses four key areas:

	Make a Difference will encourage highly motivated graduate calibre individuals to pursue a management career in FE.
	Business Talent will help FE providers attract talented managers from other sectors.
	Business Interchange will give FE staff the chance to work more closely with local businesses and update their vocational skills.
	Pass on Your Skills will provide opportunities for skilled specialists to move into teaching roles within FE.

LLUK is working with employers, learning providers, representative bodies and other FE system organisations to offer these programmes in FE, general education and sixth form colleges and work based learning and community settings.
