Shared Outcomes Assurance Group

The Shared Outcomes Assurance Group (SOAG) was established in January 2022.

SOAG will assure progress at official level and take remedial action where required,  in advance of the six weekly joint agency Chair and Chief Executive meetings with the Minister for Higher Education and Further Education, Youth Employment and Training.
