Workforce Development: Extension of Train to Gain

The DfES announced an extension of its Train to Gain programme to HE levels in the recent FE White paper (March 2006, see above). This will mean that employers can source their learning needs – from basic skills to higher levels – through a single broker. This is being trialled in three regions – the North East, South West and North West. HEFCE has offered support to pilot projects under this programme.
