Shaping the future of skills in Devon & Somerset

Working with employers to help supply a better skills provision

Devon & Somerset Local Skills Improvement Plan aims to work with employers and education providers to produce a skilled workforce better matched to the needs of business.

Local Skills Improvement Plans are being implemented across the UK as part of the Government’s Skills Accelerator programme.

The Devon & Somerset Local Skills Improvement Plan is being jointly led by Devon & Plymouth Chamber of Commerce and Somerset Chamber of Commerce.

Our LSIP Report has now been published following months of engagement with hundreds of businesses, who have helped us understand the key changes that are needed to make sure they have access to a skilled labour market equipped for the future of work.

The Report recommends 20 priority areas to help make that happen, with a clear roadmap for achieving those priorities. You can download the report in full below.
