Employment and Training

The Community Counts programme closed on the 31st January 2009 at the end of its seven year life span.

Gloucester City Employment Plan Update

The Gloucester City Employment Plan was launched in October 2008 and aims to give local residents improved access to employment opportunities.

The initiative is working with individuals to identify their current skills, provide free training and qualifications to help them get into employment, and support them in the future to enable career progression. The programme also aims to provide more support for existing and new employers to help them develop their workforce so that they will achieve the higher skills that are necessary for sustained growth and competitiveness.

The Employment Plan is being delivered by Gloucestershire First. Find out more by visiting their website.
