Investing in the workforce of today to maximise the skills of tomorrow

Training may not always be top of the agenda – after all you are busy with your day job, or running your own business and it can wait, can’t it? Perhaps not.

 

Recent research (2007) shows that firms that do not train are 2.5 times more likely to fail than those who do.  With so many benefits from training, Lantra is driving to improve performance through investment in skills and has successfully developed a range of distinctive tools to support individuals and companies of all sizes and types.

 

  • Having skilled staff is essential for businesses, but how do you know which skills to invest in? Skills Manager is a simple to use on-line tool that enables employers to manage staff more effectively, by recognising and assessing employees training needs in a cost effective way.  Find out more here .

 

  • Lantra has developed the National Student Database, the first of its kind, to help improve the qualifity of new entrants and ensure they are work-ready. View a demonstration and find out more here .
