Milestone Targets. Goldsmiths already recruits strongly from state schools and amongst students from backgrounds which are typically under-represented in higher education. As a result we feel it would be appropriate for us to set milestones which aim to consolidate our current levels of recruitment from state schools, from social groups IV-VII and from low participation neighbourhoods. We feel that this is reasonable as these groups are the most vulnerable to any detrimental effects of an increase in fees. We will use our bursaries to offset the threat of economic hardship to students and encourage applications by developing our outreach and widening participation activities. In addition, the College will work with Goldsmiths Students’ Union, to provide support for better levels of retention amongst all students, but particularly widening participation entrants. These milestones are based on HEFCE performance indicators. Category Benchmark Performance 2007- 08 From State Schools or Colleges 87% 92% Socio-Economic Groups IV-VII 29.3% 25.9% Low Participation Neighbourhoods 6.5% 6.4% Milestones 2006-11 Recruitment Target Group 2006-07 2007-08 2008-09 2009-10 2010-11 Entrants from State Schools/ Colleges 90.5% 90.5% 85.2% 85.2% 85.2% Socio-Economic Groups IV-VII 25.5% 25.5% 25.5% 25.5% 25.5% Low Participation Neighbourhoods 9.5% 9.5% 9.5% 9.5% 9.5%
Milestone Targets. As noted above, Xxxxx Xxxx already has a good record on access for under- represented groups and on comprehensive and effective engagement with outreach activities. Xxxxx Xxxx is concerned that the introduction of fees from 2006 might act as a deterrent to the above groups to participation in higher education, especially in view of the widespread misunderstandings about fee repayment partly generated by inaccurate media coverage. Accordingly, given the already high level of representation in the Xxxxx Xxxx student body of under-represented groups, our objective will be to use bursaries, outreach programmes and communication to protect our current levels of access. Given our good record we feel that it would not be reasonable to project forward a large increase in the levels of participation by under-represented groups or in outreach activity, although we will always seek opportunities to make positive changes. We think that the milestone targets set out in Appendix II are sufficiently stretching in our particular circumstances.

  • Milestones Subject to the provisions of the SGIP, the Parties shall agree on milestones for which each Party is responsible and list them in Attachment 4 of this Agreement. A Party’s obligations under this provision may be extended by agreement. If a Party anticipates that it will be unable to meet a milestone for any reason other than a Force Majeure event, it shall immediately notify the other Parties of the reason(s) for not meeting the milestone and (1) propose the earliest reasonable alternate date by which it can attain this and future milestones, and (2) requesting appropriate amendments to Attachment 4. The Party affected by the failure to meet a milestone shall not unreasonably withhold agreement to such an amendment unless it will suffer significant uncompensated economic or operational harm from the delay, (1) attainment of the same milestone has previously been delayed, or (2) it has reason to believe that the delay in meeting the milestone is intentional or unwarranted notwithstanding the circumstances explained by the Party proposing the amendment.

  • Development Milestone Payments In partial consideration for the rights and licenses granted to Coya hereunder, within ten days after the first achievement of each milestone event in a given Indication set forth in this Section 5.2 (Development Milestone Payments) with respect to a Product (each, a “Development Milestone Event”) by or on behalf of Coya or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees, Coya shall provide ARScience Bio written notice to ARScience Bio identifying the Development Milestone Event achieved. Upon receipt of any such notice of first achievement of a Development Milestone Event by Coya or its Affiliates or Sublicensees, ARScience Bio will promptly invoice Coya for the applicable Development Milestone Event and Coya will make a milestone payment to ARScience Bio in the amount set forth in this Section 5.2 (Development Milestone Payments) corresponding to such Development Milestone Event (each, a “Development Milestone Payment”) within 45 days of receipt of such invoice. On an Indication-by-Indication basis, each Development Milestone Payment shall be payable only upon the first achievement of the corresponding Development Milestone Event by a Product, in any given Indication for which the Development Milestone Events have not been previously achieved (each such Indication, a “New Indication”). No amounts shall be due for subsequent or repeated achievements of such Development Milestone Event with respect to the same or different Mono Product or Combination Product, as applicable, in such Indication. Accordingly and for clarity, the Development Milestone Payment shall be paid only once, when first achieved by Coya, an Affiliate or a Sublicensee, but no payment shall be due if the same milestone is subsequently achieved by one of Coya, an Affiliate or a Sublicensee. For clarity, the amounts owed in Column (a) below shall be due for the first Combination Product to achieve the Development Milestone Events in a New Indication and the amounts owned in Column (c) below shall be due for the first Mono Product to achieve the Development Milestone Events in a New Indication. Any Combination Product or Mono Product to achieve the Development Milestone Events in a New Indication after the first achievement of the Development Milestone Events as described in the foregoing sentence will cause the amounts in Column (b) with respect to a Combination Product and Column (d) with respect to a Mono Product to be due and payable by Coya upon each such occurrence. If the first Product to achieve a Development Milestone Event in any Indication is a Combination Product, the amounts in Column (a) below shall be due and payable by Coya. If the next Product to achieve a Development Milestone Event in a New Indication is a Mono Product, the amounts in Column (c) below would be due and payable by Coya; provided, that if such next Product to achieve a Development Milestone Event in a New Indication is a Combination Product, the amounts in Column (b) would be due and payable by Coya. By way of example, if a Combination Product achieves IND Acceptance in ALS, and is the first Product to achieve a Development Milestone Event under this Agreement, [***] will be due and payable by Coya. If subsequently a Mono Product achieves IND Acceptance in ALS, no Development Milestone Payments will be due and payable by Coya under this Agreement. However, if subsequently any Combination Product achieves IND Acceptance in Alzheimer’s disease, [***] would be due and payable by Coya.

  • Targets and Milestones Comparing the relative performance of different groups to the over or under- representation within the institution and taking into account our current performance in our Access Agreement milestones, areas for particular focus include: Low Participating Neighbourhoods; Low income groups; Target groups to include gender, disability and care leavers; Black and minority ethnic (BME) group attainment; Completion rates. As a result of the analysis of our performances, our access, success and progression interventions will concentrate on the following: Continuation of involvement in collaborative outreach activity via the KMPF and the Kent and Medway Collaborative Network (KMCNet) as part of the National Network for Collaborative Outreach (NNCO); Recognition of the importance of carefully targeted activity; The use of serial rather than one-off interventions; The importance of long-term outreach to include the whole student lifecycle; The helpfulness of Higher Education Access Tracker (HEAT) for evaluating the impact of interventions; The importance of a whole institution approach; The importance of student attendance monitoring; Ease of access to information and student welfare support; An increasing emphasis on evaluation of activities across the student lifecycle; Accessibility of employability advice and support. Given our relatively strong record to date for widening access and student success, most of the targets seek to maintain, and where possible improve, this performance within a more challenging financial environment. Such targets may be especially challenging and stretching in relation to the access of those from Low Participating Neighbourhoods (LPNs), given the demographic decline in the number of young people (aged 18-21) in the population and the University’s already high recruitment levels from these groups. We have removed the University’s NS-SEC target in response to the UK Performance Indicator Steering Group announcement that HESA will no longer be publishing the NS-SEC indicator after 2016. As we already have LPN and Household Income targets in place we shall not be replacing this target with an alternative. We have reviewed our success targets and added new progression targets for 2017. There was a concern in the institution that our internal reporting did not allow for national and regionally adjusted benchmark comparison. We have therefore made the following adjustments to our success targets: Non-continuation two years following year of entry: part-time first degree entrants – all entrants: Replacing the OFFA agreement target with the similar data from HESA allows for national benchmarking to be undertaken in order to ensure that the University is maintaining its commitment to these students. We aim to keep our non-continuation rate in this area below our HESA benchmark rate. Non-continuation following year of entry: UK domiciled full-time first degree entrants – mature entrants: Changing the target to clearly focus on mature full-time first degree students (to match the national HESA data) ensures that we focus our efforts on this section of the student population and for the outcomes to be compared with HESA benchmarks rather than internally produced data. We aim to ensure that this student population’s non-continuation rate is at or below the HESA benchmark rate by 2020/21. Non-continuation following year of entry: UK domiciled full-time first degree entrants – all entrants: In order to ensure that young students are not disadvantaged by the focus on mature entrants, the University will also commit to maintaining the overall non-continuation rate for all students at or below the HESA benchmark. BME: the University will replace the current phrasing of the target around BME success with a more explicit aim of reducing the success gap experienced by BME students. Progression: the University has added a progression target that aims to keep us around or above the sector benchmark for the Employment Indicator from the DLHE survey. Combined targets from the collaborative KMPF project (agreed by all partners) are to raise applications and subsequent conversions to higher education from within the target schools and colleges in LPNs. These targets will need to be reviewed in the coming years to reflect changes to GCSE grading in schools. Our institutional and collaborative targets are included in tables 7a and 7b respectively.
