What will the Skills for Jobs Strategy mean to your business? ​

Picture
7th April 2021
In its Skills for Jobs White Paper, the UK Government outlines its proposals to “move on from previous underestimations of further and technical education and reinforce its pivotal role as a pathway to a bright future”.

It puts businesses at the heart of defining local skills needs. To share their voice, of course, employers need a clear and effective channel of communication. It is, therefore, welcome news that the White Paper explores a new role for Chambers of Commerce and other employer representatives.
The White Paper is split into five themes:

  1. Employers at the heart of skills
  2. Higher-level technical qualifications
  3. Lifelong learning
  4. Training Providers
  5. Excellent teaching

Access Training is one of the East Midlands’ leading independent training providers so our role will be pivotal in upskilling our region’s workforce over the coming years. 

As a strategic partner of East Midlands Chamber, we’re often called upon to share our expertise in the Chamber’s Business Network magazine. In her most recent article, ‘What will the Skills Strategy mean to your business?’, our Managing Director, Corrina Hembury, picked out the key proposals we think are of most interest to local businesses:

  • Defining local skills needs
  • Employer-led standards
  • More support for apprenticeships
  • Increased status of traineeships as a progression route
  • Higher-level technical qualifications
  • More Careers Advice support
