 2001 – second year placement (1 week)

 2002 – 2004 - summer placements (1 month - paid)

 2005 – sponsorship towards LPC course fees
What did Burnetts gain?


 The opportunity to capture young local talent – stopping the brain drain towards the
  North East and elsewhere

 Established a system with the potential to provide a constant supply of quality lawyers

 Potential recruits with a genuine commitment to Cumbria meaning a greater chance of
  return on their investment

 An extended interview process

What did I gain?


 A key insight into a career thus being able to make sure it was the right path for me

 Hit the ground running – gained knowledge about the firm and a career in law

 Dispelled degree myths – not Kavanagh QC!

 Work experience – paid!

 Opportunity to participate in a wide range of legal fields thus being in a position to make
  an informed decision
The Present


 Building on the initial confidence gained from the scheme that has been key to my
  progression – “the problem with Richard Miller is...”

 Opportunity to take key roles in significant multi million pound transactions without
  leaving the County

 Work/Life balance – quality of life in Cumbria with friends and family for support

 Being able to establish myself within a community over short period of time with
  interlinked circles of key contacts
Conclusion


 Work experience provides benefits for your business as well as the individual

 Establishes closer links between you and local education institutions

 Helps to counter the brain drain outside of Cumbria

 Ensures that young prospective employees are “work-ready” before their employment
  begins

 Given the success since it’s start over a decade ago, the scheme continues to date with
  a number of key solicitors within the firm having originated from this project

The benefits of HE
                      Learners
According to Directgov UK:

•Higher education benefits you in a number of ways.

•University or college lets you experience a rich cultural and social scene,
meeting a variety of people while studying something you love

•On average, graduates tend to earn substantially more than people with A
levels who did not go to university. Projected over a working lifetime, the
difference is something like £100,000 before tax at today’s valuation
The benefits of HE
                   Learners

•   Higher education develops qualities that are valued by employers,
    such as problem-solving and communication skills. Doing a higher
    education course could give you an edge in the job market: forecasts
    predict that half of positions that become vacant between 2004 and
    2020 will be in areas of work most likely to demand graduates

•   Many employers target graduates in their recruitment campaigns.
The benefits of HE
                    Employers
According to Union Learn:

•Increase profitability
•Improve quality of work
•Fill skill shortages and gaps
•Meet customer demand for high-quality products or services
•Increase staff loyalty, commitment and retention
•Gain better corporate image as an employer, and in the community
•Be perceived as excellent in training and development by shareholders,
analysts and potential employees
The benefits of HE
                  Employers
•   Reduce staff turnover and recruitment costs
•   Boost employee morale/attitude to work
•   Reduce absenteeism
•   Employees develop lifelong learning attitudes
•   Improve effectiveness of supervisory staff
•   Improve staff understanding of and commitment to organisational
    culture
•   Implement new legislation/technology
•   Identify and use talent, rather than lose it
•   Employees introduce new approaches and ideas
Why a University in Cumbria?

By 20017-
•Participation in HE in Cumbria by young people
averaged 28%
•In 31 wards (Carlisle, Barrow and
Workington/Whitehaven) participation was below
16%
•More than 2500 18 year olds with level 3
qualifications did not progress directly to HE (2004
figures)
(Based on POLAR Data, Hefce)
Why a University in Cumbria?
• Progression opportunities were not available, or
  restricted in choice, for those achieving level 3,
  particularly where they were studying vocational
  qualifications.

• Raising (or broadening?) aspirations and attainment
  was fundamental

• So was offering a wider choice of locally available
  HE opportunities.
Why a University in Cumbria?

Key purpose-
Addressing the Physical and Psychological
Barriers to Access to Higher Education for:
•Students
•Parents and influencers
•Employers
Initial Proposal for a New University of
                    Cumbria

Report by Sir Martin Harris (21-9-2005)

I propose that a decision is taken, ideally by December 2005, to create a
University of Cumbria, either from 1 August 2007 or one year later

The principal purpose of the new university, especially in its distributed
form, would be to improve opportunities for Cumbrian residents, whether
school leavers or older, and for Cumbrian employers in both the private
and public sectors.
Initial Proposal for a New University of
                   Cumbria

It is particularly important that vocational progression routes are
secured, as there is a strong need for county-wide higher level
educational opportunities to support the changing basis of industries and
businesses in Cumbria.

The distances that learners need to travel to study mean that work-
based learning, or local provision to support those in work and aspiring
to increase or change their skills level, need to be more widely available.

The network should we widely cast, and include all those institutions
which can contribute to the benefit of Cumbrian students.
Our history

We’re new, but with a long
  history!
The university was formed in
  2007 but its foundations go
  back to
• Charlotte Mason College
  (1896) which trained
  teachers,
• Cumbria Institute of the Arts
  (1822),
• St Martins College (1964).
Where are we?
Campuses and locations in:
• Ambleside
• Barrow-in-Furness
• Carlisle
• Lancaster
• London
• Penrith
• Workington

And in partnership with Colleges and
other providers in Cumbria and beyond
Corporate Strategy

The University’s “Mission”:

Is to provide and promote excellent and
accessible higher education which
enhances the lives of individuals and
fosters the development of the
communities to which we belong.
In so doing, the University will embrace
four guiding themes: sustainability;
creativity; employability and enterprise.

  • 142. The benefits of HE Learners According to Directgov UK: •Higher education benefits you in a number of ways. •University or college lets you experience a rich cultural and social scene, meeting a variety of people while studying something you love •On average, graduates tend to earn substantially more than people with A levels who did not go to university. Projected over a working lifetime, the difference is something like £100,000 before tax at today’s valuation
  • 143. The benefits of HE Learners • Higher education develops qualities that are valued by employers, such as problem-solving and communication skills. Doing a higher education course could give you an edge in the job market: forecasts predict that half of positions that become vacant between 2004 and 2020 will be in areas of work most likely to demand graduates • Many employers target graduates in their recruitment campaigns.
  • 144. The benefits of HE Employers According to Union Learn: •Increase profitability •Improve quality of work •Fill skill shortages and gaps •Meet customer demand for high-quality products or services •Increase staff loyalty, commitment and retention •Gain better corporate image as an employer, and in the community •Be perceived as excellent in training and development by shareholders, analysts and potential employees
  • 145. The benefits of HE Employers • Reduce staff turnover and recruitment costs • Boost employee morale/attitude to work • Reduce absenteeism • Employees develop lifelong learning attitudes • Improve effectiveness of supervisory staff • Improve staff understanding of and commitment to organisational culture • Implement new legislation/technology • Identify and use talent, rather than lose it • Employees introduce new approaches and ideas
  • 146. Why a University in Cumbria? By 20017- •Participation in HE in Cumbria by young people averaged 28% •In 31 wards (Carlisle, Barrow and Workington/Whitehaven) participation was below 16% •More than 2500 18 year olds with level 3 qualifications did not progress directly to HE (2004 figures) (Based on POLAR Data, Hefce)
  • 147. Why a University in Cumbria? • Progression opportunities were not available, or restricted in choice, for those achieving level 3, particularly where they were studying vocational qualifications. • Raising (or broadening?) aspirations and attainment was fundamental • So was offering a wider choice of locally available HE opportunities.
  • 148. Why a University in Cumbria? Key purpose- Addressing the Physical and Psychological Barriers to Access to Higher Education for: •Students •Parents and influencers •Employers
  • 149. Initial Proposal for a New University of Cumbria Report by Sir Martin Harris (21-9-2005) I propose that a decision is taken, ideally by December 2005, to create a University of Cumbria, either from 1 August 2007 or one year later The principal purpose of the new university, especially in its distributed form, would be to improve opportunities for Cumbrian residents, whether school leavers or older, and for Cumbrian employers in both the private and public sectors.
  • 150. Initial Proposal for a New University of Cumbria It is particularly important that vocational progression routes are secured, as there is a strong need for county-wide higher level educational opportunities to support the changing basis of industries and businesses in Cumbria. The distances that learners need to travel to study mean that work- based learning, or local provision to support those in work and aspiring to increase or change their skills level, need to be more widely available. The network should we widely cast, and include all those institutions which can contribute to the benefit of Cumbrian students.
  • 151. Our history We’re new, but with a long history! The university was formed in 2007 but its foundations go back to • Charlotte Mason College (1896) which trained teachers, • Cumbria Institute of the Arts (1822), • St Martins College (1964).
  • 152. Where are we? Campuses and locations in: • Ambleside • Barrow-in-Furness • Carlisle • Lancaster • London • Penrith • Workington And in partnership with Colleges and other providers in Cumbria and beyond
  • 153. Corporate Strategy The University’s “Mission”: Is to provide and promote excellent and accessible higher education which enhances the lives of individuals and fosters the development of the communities to which we belong. In so doing, the University will embrace four guiding themes: sustainability; creativity; employability and enterprise.
