The Skills Partnership
We provide supportive, flexible quality work-based learning, enabling individuals to achieve their true potential whilst supporting employers in the successful ongoing development of their business.
By working in close partnership with learners, employers, as well as government and industry bodies, The Skills Partnership aims to significantly improve the work skills of young people and adults across the country.
Approved and supported by The Learning & Skills Council, we are able to arrange government funded learning for employees aged 16+ and for employed adults aged 19+ for a wide variety of courses.
Although the Skills Partnership provides a wide range of different courses including Apprenticeships and NVQ's, the underpinning learner journey remains the same, the key elements of this pathway to success are shown in this diagram.
What you can achieve:
- NVQ - a nationally recognised qualification where you will develop and use your skills and knowledge at work to show that you can meet national standards in your sector.
- Technical Certificates - These certificates assess specific occupational underpinning knowledge and understanding.
- Key Skills - These are qualifications for Skills required in the world of work. You will achieve key skills qualifications at level 1 or 2 in "communication" and "application of number".
- If a full Apprenticeship is not appropriate for you, you may decide to access a stand alone qualification (e.g. an NVQ).
