The Skills for Business Network (SfBn) is working to enhance the provision of sector-specific Information Advice and Guidance. Twelve Sector Skills Councils have teamed up to plan, develop and deliver IAG services that will benefit careers advisors and individuals. This project will also facilitate the use and interpretation by advisors of labour market intelligence. This, in turn, will help clients raise their awareness of sectors and industries in order to make meaningful job and career choices.
The Government Skills Strategy sets out proposals for reform for information, advice and guidance for adults in England. This will include the development of an infrastructure to support adults that is universally available, highly respected and well used. This Sector Skills Councils’ Information, Advice and Guidance Project links directly to the government review by providing an employer perspective through the SfBn. Better sector intelligence will help employers to fill skills shortages and ensure they are recruiting people with a good skills ‘match’ to meet their requirements.
You can find out more about the project from the document attached, but you can also use this forum to give your reaction to the initiative. Perhaps you've been to the workshops they have initiated under the scheme?
