Your chamber is putting the voice of business at the centre of skills planning in Kent & Medway, what does it mean for you and your business and how can you get involved.

Through its Local Skills Improvement Plan Programme, the Department for Education (DfE) has recognised the importance of understanding the regional skills needs as well as the key role employers and businesses play in setting out the regional priorities for skills and labour needs.

Kent & Medway was a trailblazer area for the pilot run by DfE and your Chamber has secured the role of Employer Representative Body for the next 3 years. This means that together we can build on that base and ensure that the employer voice in Kent & Medway is heard.

The workshop will cover what this means in practical terms, what it represents for you and your business and how you can get involved.

This is an overview and further sector-based events will be taking place so if you cannot attend, please make sure you register your interest by emailing lsip@kentinvictachamber.co.uk

The workshop will be led by Lucy Druesne, newly appointed Skills Programme Manager at KICC, focusing on the employer voice in the skills agenda and taking forward the Kent & Medway Skills Improvement Plan (2022-2025.)
