This is a moment to hear from colleagues with different perspectives. Together we can commit to creating real impact in university and business collaborative actions, to rejuvenate the education system, to transform and diversify the creative workforce, and to develop the talented designers our industry needs.
Through a series of roundtables, provocations and knowledge exchange, DBA and CHEAD members are collaborating to shape a design-led education and industry skills system fit for the future. We aim to create a framework to sustain skills pipelines, embed industry needs, and future proof opportunities for students, graduates, alumni and existing designers.
Attendees will be the first to hear what industry wants from HEIs.
We are inviting you to contribute to this shared vision. The meeting will be recorded for attendees only.
