Last chance to benefit from Employer Funding
Employers in North Wales have until December 2024 to benefit from the Employer Skills North Wales (ESNW), a UK Shared Prosperity funded project that allows employers in Anglesey, Gwynedd and Conwy to access cutting edge skills provided by Busnes@LlandrilloMenai.
Training programmes that are available before the end of the year include a range of professional management and business courses, PRINCE2, IOSH, Engineering, Building services and motor vehicle, including electric and hybrid.
The North Wales Regional Skills plan has identified that 70% of employers in the region are facing skills challenges and aims to support hundreds of individuals to reach their potential by developing their careers and skills thus facilitating businesses growth, the safeguarding of existing jobs and the creation of new ones.
This project is unique in that funding can be leveraged to access specialist courses and shorter focused training programmes - benefiting companies by identifying skills-gaps and signposting employers to fully-funded training delivered at Grŵp Llandrillo Menai through its business branch Busnes@LlandrilloMenai.
Busnes@LlandrilloMenai project manager Geraint Jones commented:
“This project enables local businesses to increase the skills of their workforce and ultimately grow their business. In the first 6 months of this project we have worked over 75 companies, with currently 200 individual employees on programme. We now hope to work with a further 50 businesses before December to address skills gaps.”
