Having a skilled and productive workforce is vital for our economy. Everyone in the workplace should be given the opportunity to continue to learn, develop their skills and fulfil their potential.

Skilled and Productive Workforce objectives:

We want employers to use all options of training to develop and increase the skills of their staff, including available funded training and apprentice training, sign up to the Lancashire Skills Pledge, where knowledgeable professionals can contact you to discuss how these projects will benefit your business.

  • Need better trained and skilled people?
  • Looking to build competitive advantage through your team’s performance?
  • Want to retain people and build loyalty?
  • Keen to improve the productivity of your people?

We want to work with partners to give employers information and support, to enable them to make informed decisions about how to develop and increase the skills of their staff.

We can link you with projects which provide training needs analysis for employers, funded training for your staff and also projects which provide more information about apprenticeship training for your staff.
