Description
CCP aims to establish a new Network of Employability Support and Training (NEST) Vocational Training Framework programme (“the Framework”) on behalf of the six local authorities under the ESES CRD (Edinburgh, Fife, Scottish Border, West Lothian, Mid Lothian, and East Lothian) and the University of Edinburgh and Napier University. It is anticipated that other public bodies may also look to make use of the Framework once established. The new Framework will provide employability and vocational training to complement current employability and skills support provisions. It will offer upskilling and progression opportunities for both those seeking employment and those in employment but facing uncertainty in their work or in-work poverty. Through the agreement established by the Framework (the “Framework Agreement”), CCP aims to work alongside organisations and we see the future relationship with successful framework providers as a partnership.
