We have been working with skills providers, strategic planners, employers and other key partners to support the development of integrated employment and skills programmes. This includes helping organisations to work together so that they can support people to improve their ‘employability’ – that is, their ability to move into a sustainable job, continue acquiring skills and progress at work.

Our work includes a wide variety of participative events, workshops and master classes that are tailored to suit the different organisations that want to create integrated employment and skills solutions.

We are currently supporting the further development and evaluation of programmes such as Skills for Jobs and the Employability Skills Programme.  Our work also includes helping organisations to join up ‘welfare to work’ and other programmes and services to create employability pathways. Licence to Skill and the Integrated Planning Matrix is being used as a tool to support these activities.
