Our approach
Our Partnership team has already engaged a wide range of stakeholders and service providers in each region, working together to design a service which meets the local skills and labour demand.
Continuous improvement is at the heart of what we do and through the development of a Centre of Excellence we will make best use of data and research to create evidence-based practice which drives positive outcomes. This knowledge base will contribute to the advancement of the sector and the quality of employability programmes for the long term unemployed.
