Learning Networks

Network Structure

In each training network, enterprises form steering or management groups to oversee and direct the process. These groups, comprised of a representative group of enterprises in the network, meet on a regular basis to take management decisions on behalf of the network.

This process operates in different ways depending on the nature, size, membership profile and location of the network; e.g. training needs analysis may be carried out by questionnaire, by a consultant being employed to talk to individual members and draw together feedback, by groups of companies meeting to discuss and debate needs, or by semi-structured seminars to identify individual and group needs.
