The Sector Panel for Computing & Call Centres met this afternoon in Glasgow. Computing is one of three panels that have been created as part of a pilot project to evaluate the effectiveness of these groups to provide advice to SQA.

The meeting went well. Chris Morrow of E-Skills UK gave a presentation on recent research and also explained the Sector Skills Agreement. Bob McGonigle gave a presentation on SQA’s work with vendors. I commenced the meeting with a short presentation on current developments such as the current review of the HNC/D IT and the planned reviews of National Certificate and HN Multimedia.
