## Notice

The Education and Training Foundation (ETF) are seeking a tenderer to evaluate the 'Pathways to Further Education' programme. The main aim of this evaluation is to provide evidence on whether the programme was successful in raising awareness of FE teaching as a career option amongst final year undergraduates and post-graduates with relevant industry experience. The evaluation should explore whether the participants enjoyed their experience of FE, establish whether they developed a good understanding of possible careers and opportunities within the FE sector and explore in more depth participants' expectations and whether their expectations were met. Similarly, we would also like to explore whether the college/organisations headteachers' expectations were met and whether they would like to be part of this project in the future.
