A series of case studies which demonstrate innovative skills and employment projects

View allEmployment and skills articles

This report contains a series of case studies which demonstrate innovative skills and employment projects being delivered by, and with, councils across England. They show councils making a real difference, using their unique position to bring partners and resources together to drive local economic growth.

Councils are fully committed to the jobs and skills agenda and recognise how this plays a core part in their local growth ambitions, which in turn will support national productivity. They are doing their part by working with employers to create jobs and quality apprenticeships, with skills providers to ensure learning opportunities are relevant to local growth plans and supporting local residents to reach their full potential.
