For the enterprising College: an award winning programme of engaging activities and events involving your students, staff and regional employers and delivering key skills qualifications. Working Knowledge for colleges. Smart and fast.
Why Working Knowledge?
"Working Knowledge is information combined with experience, context, interpretation, and reflection. It is a high value form of information that is ready to apply to decisions and actions.” Thomas H Davenport – Professor of Information Management at The University of Texas, Austin, TX
What do Colleges think?
“Every full time student at Redcar & Cleveland College goes through Ride the Wave and students who went through the programme last year are already seeing the benefits of it when they enter the world of work. It is absolutely brilliant, employers have been seeking out some of the more innovative students and have been offering sponsorships for business ideas as well as mentoring opportunities leading to full time employment”
“Feedback from students shows that they have thoroughly enjoyed the experience and have developed a real focus on employability and business start up issues”
“The Ride the Wave programme at Redcar & Cleveland College is making a real difference to enterprise culture in our local area and with the now award winning programme being offered nationally this will have an impact across the UK” Gary Groom - Principal and Chief Executive, Redcar and Cleveland College
