| About eMandate | |
eMandate already provides a comprehensive resource of around 415 colleges’ estates information enabling participating colleges to compare their performance against similar colleges across a wide range of activities including property costs per learner, college operating costs, space efficiency, energy efficiency and relative estates’ funding requirements.
Participation in eMandate will provide colleges with a standard set of reliable key performance indicators to help analyse and present data to support and improve the strategic management of their property resources. The LSC, the National Council for Education and Training for Wales and the Scottish Further Education Funding Council, established eMandate three years ago as a vital ‘benchmarking’ tool for measuring colleges’ efficiency and identifying best practice. All Councils fully endorse participation and the current phase of eMandate (2006-2008) is to include all British colleges. Sector wide participation will further enhance the value, credibility of this resource by capturing the diversity within the sector. In order to ensure all colleges join the next phase, their participation in eMandate is being made a mandatory condition for receiving capital grant from the LSC. The Scottish and Welsh funding bodies will announce their own arrangements, but it is expected that all colleges will participate.
Participating colleges will get unrivalled access to a unique estates management information resource enabling them to review, challenge and understand performance. |
