Skills solution team helps city employers

It is part of Jobs Minister Dr Stephen Farry’s strategy to address skill shortages in the North West.

Dr Farry explained: “My Department’s Skills Solutions Service, targeted specifically at small and medium sized enterprises, helps employers across Northern Ireland and in all sectors to understand and access the Department’s skills development provision.

“It is delivered on an area based basis, which includes a dedicated team in the North West. We are mindful of the One Plan, aimed at the regeneration of Londonderry, and my Department is represented on the Skills Directorate which was established in the city to take forward the relevant parts of the plan.”
