The report that we carried out earlier this year for the London Enterprise Panel on the skills that are currently required in London is now available to view here. The report compares these skill requirements to the education offering currently available in London by further education colleges, universities, and other private providers. As part of the project we spoke to key employers and a sample of education providers, carried out employment and skills forecasts for London, and provided the GLA with recommendations on how more Londoners, and in particular those from more disadvantaged backgrounds, could better access the London labour market. The findings were well received and were used as an impetus for a change in the capital’s educational offering.
