Our goal is to support businesses to develop a highly-skilled workforce. We do that by supporting successful apprenticeships and working with businesses, employees and schools on programmes that give everyone the best chance of success. We consult with our industries through our members, keeping them up-to-date and inviting them to take part in our meetings.
