Within Cintra iQ, you can create a Further Education Workforce Data (FEWD) staff record to be submitted to the Further Education body. Use the attached FEWD_Cintra.xlsx and FEWD_Import_POST_Cintra.xlsx files as templates to collect your data before you import it into Cintra iQ.
Important:
From the year 1 August 2021 to 31 July 2022, it is a mandatory requirement for FE establishments to submit further education workforce data. For further details visit the UK government web site at https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/further-education-workforce-data-collection

Tips for filling in data

- You can track the progress of the spreadsheet completion by entering the First Name and Last Name of each employee.
Note:
The First Name and Last Name columns are not used in the import to identify employee records.
- Dates should be entered in the format DD-MMM-YYYY, e.g. 25-May-1967
- You should complete columns I to Y by selecting one of the options in the drop-down lists which become available when you click in a column.

Tips for filling in data
- Column A should be completed by entering a valid Post Reference (i.e. a post reference which exists in the Cintra iQ database.)
- Columns B to C should be completed by selecting one of the options in the drop down lists which become available when the user navigates to a column.
Saving Data
When you use the templates for collating data in Excel, you should save the data as a spreadsheet in order to retain the drop-down functionality. Once you have entered the data in the relevant worksheets, you must save the file in a .csv format before importing it into Cintra iQ.
