We have been actively working with business, education and training providers to reform the labour market and tackle the skills shortages. Attracting and retaining people with the right skills is crucial for businesses.
The LSIP team at Sussex Chamber are delighted to publish our first annual progress report for Future Skills Sussex, the Local Skills Improvement Plan for the area. The report details which of the actions/changes set out in the LSIP have been achieved; what the impact and benefits of the changes have been; and what still needs to be achieved.
Local Skills Improvement Plans
Bridging the skills gap – A new dynamic for business, education and skills. Linking local action with national strategy.
Local Skills Improvement Plans (LSIPs) have spearheaded one of the biggest shake ups around skills and business needs in recent times.
Diverse businesses and employers across England, many of whom had never engaged in conversation with training providers before, have spoken loudly and clearly.
Sussex Chamber of Commerce is proud to act as the designated employer representative body responsible for the Sussex LSIP covering West Sussex, East Sussex and Brighton & Hove.

Employers have experienced a shortage of job candidates and a mismatch of skills on offer. It’s had a damaging impact on firms’ ability to fulfil order books, take on new work and operate profitably.
