Asset skills roadshows

July 1, 2006
by News on the Block Editorial Team

In today’s competitive market property companies can no longer compete on price alone and an organisation’s best assets are the staff it employs and their individual skills, knowledge and expertise. To address skills issues and plan for the future, Asset Skills, the Sector Skills Council (SSC) for the places where we live and work, is running a series of breakfast sessions designed to garner your views and experience to assist in building a strategy to take skills and training for property into the future, and showcase the ways in which Asset Skills is helping employers with information, advice and guidance on training and funding.

The road shows are designed to provide networking opportunities running alongside the workshops that have been designed for employers to voice their views and have a real impact for the development of skills and qualifications specifically for the industry.

The information gathered from the road shows will be used to develop a Sector Skills assessment of current and future skills needs, an analysis of sector trends, drivers of productivity, areas for workforce development and reducing skills gaps and shortages.

The road shows are being run throughout September
