Future Talent Business Partner

A key part of our ambition for learners is to ensure our curriculum delivers the skills required for industry, providing an inspirational learning experience for those learners who trust us with their future.

To support this ambition, we have created Career Excellence Hubs for each area of our provision, which offers a close alignment with employers, to support our learner in developing the skills needed for industry.

Each employer we partner with in our Career Excellence Hubs, will support our learners by:

Co-designing training provision
Creating an inspirational learning experience
Providing the skills training required for your business and wider industry
Delivering a talented workforce so your business and industry will thrive.
