The overall aims of the Skills Bootcamps are:
To deliver *flexible training programmes lasting up to 16 weeks, based on employer/sector 'in-demand' skills needs which may be either accredited (i.e. qualification based) or non-accredited (e.g. based on alignment with industry standards) enabling adults (19+) to do training around work and other commitments. Training supports those looking to gain work, additional responsibilities, pivot into new roles or access new opportunities and will offer a guaranteed job interview to individual participants (where applicable) on completion of the course.
To address the needs of adults (19+) who are full-time and part-time employed (supported by their Employers), unemployed, returning to work after a break or self-employed, and provide individuals with wider access to opportunities to retrain, update or formalise their skills or acquire specialist skills.
To address the needs of employers and the wider economy, to deliver targeted interventions to meet short-medium term demand to fill vacancies and drive productivity. Skills bootcamps will help fill medium-higher level vacancies and bring individuals (including those currently in employment) closer to better jobs, by linking them with line of sight to a job/ different role, additional responsibilities or new opportunities/contracts.
