Government Policy
A key driver of government policy is to maximise employment and skills opportunities for all.
Public money should create opportunities that help people back to work and provide wider economic and social benefits for people and places
National Skills Strategy – Skills for Growth (Nov 09).
20,000 apprenticeship places over the next three calendar years
Every government department and agency is expected to play its part
Public investment accountability – the apprenticeship, employment and skills dividend
Inclusion of employment, apprenticeships and skill requirements through procurement
The imbedding of various agendas e.g. Low Carbon agenda, CSR and PSA 16
Challenges
This approach is equally appropriate to a major project as it is to a framework agreement (YORBuild)
DBIS have sponsored the NSAfC Client Led Approach in their aspiration to achieve 20,000 apprentices through public procurement. (Lord Mandelson, Ed Balls)
