The Challenge of Identifying Skills

Finding the time to plan your future skills needs in an effective way is never easy, particularly when operating a business demands so much of your attention. Even when you successfully carve out a moment to strategise, the next hurdle arises: locating the right training programs and the financial resources to fund them. This cycle often leads to missed opportunities in skill development.

Accessing Funding
