Skills Audits

Skills audits are being used within the private, public and voluntary sectors to Identify a number of areas for development such as:

• Increase LSC (Learning and Skills Council) learner numbers -
  from Skills for Life through to Level 3.
• Provide data to both the LSC and Central Government by identifying
  the realistic number of New Apprenticeships that may actually be
  available in the public sector.
• Easily and quickly collate learner/employee data so that providers
  (whether this is the LA or not) can maximise similar skills/training
  cohorts across multi-sites at times to suit.

Support Local Authority and Private sector employers to:

• Access funded and/or subsidised training in order to either deliver contracts or maximise spending power of their budget.
• Achieve their LAA in an area where it is proving difficult.
• Analyse age and skills demographics in order to effectively develop recruitment, training and succession plans whilst accessing funded support.
