Manage episode 352400618 series 3137799
This episode was recorded live at the Innovation in Education Festival Perth in November 2022.
In this episode, we chat with return guest Rocky Collins, Principal at SEDA College, and Graeme Dix, Former Manager at BCG Construction in Perth.
This episode was all about creating an authentic and meaningful relationship between a school and an industry partner, we ask:
- Why is it important to build strong partnerships between schools and industry?
- The journey they went on from planting the seed, overcoming obstacles, and preparing to launch this new partnership with BCG?
- What sort of experiences do you hope students will have as part of the program?
- What resources has it required from each partner?
- The time spent on this?
- The talent pipeline or the performance of new graduates, what do believe schools need to spend some more time on?
- The future of the program, what will it look like if you could see 10 years into the distance?
Needless to say, this was a wide-ranging chat about education, leadership, construction, trade training and much much more. We hope you enjoy this chat with Rocky and Graeme.
