A new simplified, demand led system, agile and flexible to respond to employers needs and ready for the jobs of the future is emerging. It has significant implications for existing providers, employers and individuals. This event will map out its shape and implications for strategic players.
Across two days of intense policy presentation and discussion the convention will provide essential insight about insight into the global skills challenge and the ways in which the UK’s skills policy should respond to this challenge through seminars, networking, policy dinner and skills exhibition delegates will cover all aspects of skills and training, provision. Through plenary discussions, policy seminars, interactive debate, and networking, delegates will actively participate in shaping and understanding the future of the UK’s skills policy.
Attendance is by invitation only drawn from key leaders and policy makers in HR and Training from employers, skills providers in further and higher education and the independent sector, professional and trade bodies, statutory organisations, Local authority and civic leaders, civil servants, qualifications bodies, trade unions, academics, think tanks and voluntary organisations.
