Learning Networks
Networks for Small business
Over 82% per cent of the participating companies in the Training Networks programme are either small (less than 50) or micro (less than 10) enterprises. For many of these firms their involvement in Skillnets is their first significant involvement in training and often it is their first time to be involved in making real and informed decisions about what training to provide. Training Networks can assist small firms to access training more easily, more quickly and more cost effectively.
This experience
is helping to de-mystify training for small companies by developing practical
tools to analyse and meet training needs, quickly, locally and effectively. An
interesting feature is the collaboration in most networks between large and small
firms and the active partnership between owner-managers and employees within the
companies.
