JOINING FORCES FOR A COMMON CAUSE

JB Skills Training Ltd and the Sunderland Echo have joined forces to bring a key message to businesses in the city and the surrounding areas.

In recent years the city and businesses associated with it have started to see a real resurgence, and upturn in profit and growth in people and activity ... this is, in a large part, to do with the amount of training being provided by employers and subsequent apprenticeship jobs being created. Investment in people to be their best, means they perform better and that positively affects the bottom line of any company.

However, a new government scheme is about to launch in 2017, and we don’t want the city and its businesses to suffer by pulling in the reins. It is important we collectively continue to train and create opportunity, invest in our people, in our companies and in our future.

Our collective investment in training and education in the workplace not only reduces unemployment in the area it increases opportunities for the employed, boosts morale and reduces depression and positions our city in a positive light, which is essential for trading with business and consumers across the UK and further afield.

Between now and the end of March, every Wednesday we will be bringing you stories, direct from companies that are succeeding due to their commitment to training and apprenticeships and that intend to continue with that commitment shouting out WEAR IN. JB Skills Training ltd is proud to sponsor this campaign – more information can be found at www.jb-skillstraining.co.uk
