West Midlands colleges to help upskill the area
Colleges in the West Midlands will benefit from the latest equipment and facilities to teach the skills the region and the country need, including digital, and construction.
This is part of a new skills deal for the area, co-funded by the government, West Midlands Combined Authority, and local employers. The new deal will boost digital and technical skills, job opportunities and productivity across the region.
As part of the deal, hundreds of new apprenticeships at small and medium sized businesses will be developed in priority areas covering construction, automotive and digital.
Up to £5 million will create a National Retraining Scheme (NRS) pilot to drive adult learning and retraining and there will be a £1 million to boost Edtech and the way it supports adult learners in the West Midlands.
There will also be £1 million invested to improve careers advice for young people, including a new careers hub in the West Midlands.
A new online portal for businesses to share work experience opportunities with schools will also be piloted.
