New Chamber report outlines how your skills gaps are being tackled

The Local Skills Improvement Plan (LSIP) team at Greater Manchester Chamber of Commerce has published its latest report highlighting the new courses and initiatives that are being introduced to help address businesses’ skills gaps.

The Chamber analysed data from over 3,000 businesses when compiling the LSIP for Greater Manchester in 2023, and set out the main skills gaps affecting each sector and borough in GM. The recently published LSIP Progress Report outlines the new courses and training provision being put in place by colleges and independent training providers to tackle these skills priorities, ultimately giving businesses and individuals the skills they need to succeed.

Some of the initial skills shortages identified included net zero and green skills in relation to engineering and manufacturing, leadership and management, digital skills, retrofitting and numerous basic soft skills specific to the workplace.
