We’re pleased to have been part of this project. Feeding in to a report described as ‘groundbreaking’. Enjoyed being part of the panel at the launch today. A great conversation.
⏰ | We will be launching the final research from our five-year Skills Imperative 2035 programme tomorrow. The programme has examined how jobs and skills requirements are likely to change and how the education and skills systems need to respond to meet future skills needs. [1/4]

Great morning at the impressive new Cavendish Building for our East Midlands People and Skills Network involving a range of businesses and providers with a clear message that government are not enabling people or employers. Thanks to our hosts @DerbyUni #Skills #Unlockthelevy

Insightful afternoon at the Skills Commission #NEET evidence session in Portcullis House. Early intervention & smoother transitions are key—but we must also tackle deeper issues like job security & economic inequality. #FutureOfWork

Good luck to everyone getting exam results today! Whether it’s celebration or reflection, it’s also a moment for employers & policymakers to rethink how we support young people. T Levels, A Levels, VTQs - all show promise. Let’s ensure no potential goes untapped. #ResultsDay

Interesting workshop discussion this afternoon @thefabians discussing how to make the Growth & Skills Levy work. I think we all agreed that we need to make the levy more flexible and strategic. #levy #skills

Great to hear more about Skills England and the Industrial Strategy @ApprenticeAPPG today. Challenge will be to ensure apprenticeships and the skills system is genuinely responsive to employer’s needs across all sectors of the economy. #Apprenticeships #Skills

A great morning @SalfordUni in the North of England Robotics Innovation Centre (NERIC) talking skills with our CBI People and Skills Network (NorthEast). Some great insights from businesses and providers, and of course the odd bit of tech!

A busy day @AELPUK #aelpnc25 . Mainly here as part of the panel on what employers need from the skills system with @5PercentClubUK and @britishchambers but lots of interesting people to talk and listen to across the event.

We are two weeks away from the Spending Review. The CBI have provided clear recommendations on how the government can hardwire growth into policies. cbi.org.uk/articles/the-cbi-…. Ensuring the Growth and Skills Levy allows investment in the future workforce is key #unlockthelevy
