This project aimed to address several issues related to the labour market across Sussex including industries with retiring workforce, the rising number of jobs to fill in skill shortage sectors, in the coming years and the low number of technically skilled teachers and trainers across the area who are able to train the future workforce. Interactive joint CPD sessions brought together providers and local employers to improve the curriculum, to meet current industry needs. Masterclasses were arranged to enable the development of more dual professionals in the area and to implement support for learners progressing into employment. A conference was held in March 2019 which disseminated the learning and aims to secure strategic endorsement of the project outputs.
