Shaping Norfolk's Future is working with Trainagain on a project to identify vocational skills gaps in the workforce and explore how providers in the county can work together to deliver the skills that employers want for their workforce, and employees need for their personal development. As well as identifying current gaps, it will also examine future trends, to "future-proof" skills provision.
