JISC Advance to fund projects to enhance existing higher education resources -

The UK’s JISC Advance is inviting proposals to enhance or repurpose existing resources for use in the further education and skills sectors. This £1.4 million funding will both improve the learner experience and increase efficiencies, it is expected.

JISC Advance is looking for proposals which apply existing resources (from JISC or elsewhere) to their work and adapt them for their needs; and identify gaps in these resources or current uses for technology leading to the development of additional resources for the sector.

According to the organisation, £900,000 will be available for large-scale projects and £450,000 for smaller projects. Bids may be submitted from March 1 until noon on May 31, 2012. The call will, however, be closed once all the funding has been allocated.

The project will be supported by the Regional Support Centres (RSCs) who will provide advice and support for providers in developing and implementing their projects.
