What are Skills Bootcamps?
Skills Bootcamps are part of the Government’s Lifetime Skills Guarantee, helping everyone gain skills for life, funded through the Department of Education and are free (to the learner). New Anglia LEP in partnership with Norfolk & Suffolk County Councils has secured £1.4 million to support 380 learners through Skills Bootcamps for this financial year. Driven by employers’ needs within our region, the aim is to bridge existing skills gaps and address recruitment needs by providing flexible, intensive training programmes.
How can employers get involved?
If you are looking to fill a vacancy, you will be able to employ learners who have completed Skills Bootcamps free with no recruitment costs. Please let us know if you are recruiting and have vacancies to fill! If you have large vacancy requirements then please contact us, and we can build a Skills Bootcamp with our training providers to help you fill those vacancies.
For employers wishing to upskill their workforce, there is an employer contribution. For SMEs (small to medium size businesses, less than 250) there is a 10% contribution, for larger employers 30%.
