mobilising business for good What businesses have been telling us The size of the business challenge in HOV The employability challenge The lack of green skills in the workforce The dependency on award of contract to make investments in skills They don’t have a collective voice SMEs want to grow their businesses by becoming part of the supply chain They want to do more!

mobilising business for good Importance of Training Sector Businesses don’t differentiate education and training in the same ways as the sectors They have genuine concerns about the right skills being available at the right time in the right place The Skills Audit and Needs Analysis has been shared with UHOVI (FE and HE) and the training sector – via Rachel Searle Opportunity To create a Low Carbon Zone in HoV and a green economy Risk LCZ is created but regeneration doesn’t happen as resources are shipped in..and then shipped out again!
