Both projects offer individuals the chance to advance their skills, gaining employability and sector specific skills relating to key sectors. The priorities for the next phase of adult skills training will follow a similar methodology but with a greater emphasis on progression and clear lines of sight to employment. There will be a continuation of the work to support those marginalised in the workplace and look for expertise from providers in supporting BAME individuals, women into digital and technical roles, under-employed and underutilised graduates and those unemployed through the COVID-19 fall out. Depending on funding streams the courses can be accredited, endorsed by employers or a mixture of both.With a new wave of adult skills funding being announced the CA is looking to procure a framework of training providers that can respond to calls for specific skills training. A framework of providers with complementary specialisms and experience would enable the CA to respond quickly to the fast-changing skills needs of employers and support the West Yorkshire Economic Recovery Plan. The anticipated range of expenditure through these contracts, which is estimated and not guaranteed is approximated at £30 million over a four year period. Please note that this procurement activity is a majority funded programme and its progression is subject to external funding and internal governance approvals.
