Strong demand for workers is fuelling high wage growth, but the cost of living is surging faster, and some are warning that excessive wage demands will tip the UK into recession. This is threatening to mask the longer-lasting positive and negative impacts of the Covid crisis, from the increased opportunities offered by remote or hybrid working, to the rise in inactivity and the interruptions to careers experienced by younger workers.PANELLISTSDavid Gallagher FIEP | Chief Executive Officer | NCFEPaul de Pellette FIEP | Chief Executive Officer | Triage<h2>Seminar 2</h2><h3>LEVELLING UP AND THE INTERSECTION OF EMPLOYABILITY AND SKILLS </h3><h3>Mark Dawe | Chief Executive | The Skills Network</h3><h3></h3>Levelling up is rightly a government priority. But do we really know what good looks like and how we get there? Good sustainable employment requires skills acquisition but is that really understood and acted upon. Employment, skills and upskilling are an absolute priority for the UK. For decades we have faced a disjointed approach from the top down between those in government driving the employment agenda and those driving the skills agenda. Those delivering on the ground attempt to bring coherence, linking skills enhancement to employability, but do we have an environment where that is actually possible. What are the challenges and how do we get through them to ultimately deliver economic and social benefit to the country, its communities, employers and individuals? PANELLISTS Dan Howard FIEP | Director of Operations | NCFE Jim Carley FIEP | Managing Director | Carley Consult Ltd <h2>Seminar 3</h2><h3>HARNESSING COLLABORATIVE ADVANTAGE – THE REACT MODEL </h3><h3></h3><h3>Jane Mansour FRSA | ReAct Programme Director | Institute for Employment Studies (IES)</h3>The ReAct Partnership is an industry-led collaboration to support a continuous improvement community in the Restart programme through action research, action learning and the development of applied, evidence-based resources. In this session we will consider the value and practicality of maximising collaborative advantage in tackling the challenges of the labour market, improving outcomes for programme participants and employers, and working closely with DWP. This will include a focus on the creation of the Prime Provider Network to focus and facilitate shared employer engagement. PANELLISTSBal Dosanjh AIEP | Strategic Sector Lead for Employers for Fedcap EmploymentLiz Sewell FIEP | Director | Belina GRoW<h2>Seminar 4</h2><h3>THE REAL LEVEL OF UNEMPLOYMENT: THE CHALLENGE FOR THE LEVELLING UP AGENDA IN LEFT BEHIND BRITAIN </h3><h3></h3><h3>Professor Christina Beatty FRSA | Professor | Sheffield Hallam University</h3><h3></h3>Open any newspaper, any day of the week and you will find an article on labour supply shortages, that there is an abundance of jobs everywhere, that employment has increased and unemployment has fallen. But is this the full picture and is it the same everywhere? In reality, large disparities still exist in labour market participation in different types of places. This session will draw on findings from Sheffield Hallam University’s new report on the Real Level of Unemployment in 2022. The talk will highlight the scale of hidden unemployment within the incapacity-related benefits system, how this represents a major challenge for the levelling-up agenda, and why this needs to inform the design and delivery of employability programmes.PANELLISTSKathryn Jellings | Head of Employment Programmes | 3SCTony Wilson FIEP | Director | Institute for Employment Studies<h3>IEP SUMMIT CHAIR</h3>Samantha Avanzo Windett MIEP | Deputy Director | Learning &amp; Work Institute

Event DescriptionThe IEP Summit is an exciting industry event for IEP Members and senior colleagues from the Employability sector to be held at the historic and culturally significant RSA House.Presenting an opportunity for networking, discussion and sharing of good practice, the IEP Summit is designed to provide challenging content that looks to the future of the profession bringing senior people together for both formal seminars and informal conversation and networking.Building on our two-year success we look forward to once again welcoming senior professionals from public employment services, major providers, supply chain partners and other opinion-formers across the sector both in person and online to maximise participation from our international colleagues and partners.The IEP Summit is a unique opportunity for senior leaders and key industry figures, who are responsible for driving the sector&#x27;s strategic agenda, to come together in one space. It provides a platform to learn from and debate with colleagues offering perceptions, insights and solutions to some of the challenges and priorities facing the employability sector now and in the future. We are creating a robust and dynamic sector voice to serve both practitioners and customers better and this is a great opportunity to have your say, build new business opportunities, partner with different people and develop ‘what works’. The Summit is an opportunity for anyone who is passionate about employability services, policy, strategy and what they mean not just for our sector but to the wider world.Tickets for the IEP Summit Fellows Networking Dinner which takes place after the IEP Summit Drinks Reception are now on sale and can be booked separately <a href="https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/iep-summit-2022-fellows-dinner-and-networking-event-london-tickets-316987657617" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">at this link</a>Further Information:For sponsorship opportunities please contact Scott Parkin FIEP, Chief Executive, IEP at scott.parkin@iemployability.org For all other enquiries please contact heather@iemployability.org
