Decision details

Cabinet approved the Peterborough Skills Strategy for implementation.

It will assist in:

·           supporting partnership and collaborate on the collective vision and shared purpose

·           strengthening and building capacity

·           aligning skills development to local need

·           addressing business skills gaps

·           improving the social and economic wellbeing of local residents

·           improving health and wellbeing

·           reducing poverty

Not develop a Skills Strategy; this would not enable the City to focus attention on the need to increase skills levels in the city and this would adversely impact on the economic growth of the City.
