Shropshire County Training - achieving substantial cost savings through collaborative delivery of functional skills
Through this project, Shropshire County Training aimed to work collaboratively in identifying opportunities to deliver Functional Skills support within very rural areas in a more cost effective way. The project looked to identify innovative ways of delivering Functional Skills in rural areas through reducing the number of support visits necessary to enable learners to achieve their Apprenticeship framework requirements. The projected cumulative total of savings was £50,000 across the five partner organisations during the first year.
