Skills for Life Practitioner Network

Wednesday March 19th, 2008, 10.00 - 16:00 | Royal Mail, Rugby

The Skills for Life Practitioner network was formed in response to Practitioners who wanted a working group to share best practice and enable them to increase their understanding of Skills for Life in the workplace.

The focus of this event will be providers. As well as hearing from employers on their approaches and experiences, there will be advice on selecting provision, including looking at providers versus in house solutions.
