Description
In this session, we unravel the opportunities and challenges involved in engaging employers and employer organisations in shaping the future of local skills ecosystems. To drive local productivity and innovation, employers not only need to identify skill needs but also roll up their sleeves to provide hands-on training through apprenticeships and on-the-job training. In this session, local governments and private actors will discuss how to build sustainable partnerships in an uncertain economic climate.
