6# Supporting Employers To Invest in Skills.


Supporting Employers To Invest in Skills.


How can employers be supported to develop employees’ skills in a sustainable and effective way?

Employers are key partners in developing skills, yet many, particularly small and medium-sized companies, face constraints in providing training, including limited resources, time, and access to expertise.

This priority focuses on supporting employers to identify skills needs, access training, and embed learning within the workplace. Practical tools, partnerships, and incentives can make training more accessible and effective.

When employers are supported to invest in skills, businesses become more productive and adaptable, and workers benefit from meaningful development opportunities. This strengthens competitiveness and supports sustainable economic growth.
