Through undertaking and commissioning research, we seek understanding of complex issues affecting Further and Higher Education. NEF’s research papers provide our partners and stakeholders with evidence to make informed decisions and undertake interventions to improve sector development and support innovation. Much of our research work has resulted in positive policy change.
Examples of our research papers include the following:
• Freeing Colleges from Direct State Control
• Low Carbon Task Force - Project Energise
• Emerging Technology, Emerging Markets: Are you ready for the Opportunities?
• Planning & Funding Cycles for the Further Education Sector
• Excellence in FE
