Can small businesses get involved in National Skills Academies?
Yes. National Skills Academies are open to all employer views and welcome all potential sponsors. If employers are interested in taking forward this opportunity they should contact their Sector Skills Council (SSC contact details can be found on the Sector Skills Councils Alliance website). The employer panel that assesses at the expression of interest stage also has an SME representative. Once a business plan has been submitted for approval, it goes out to other partners, including small business organisations.
