How it works

Broker Remit

CIRCE is contracted with the Learning & Skills Council for West Yorkshire to deliver a Skills Brokerage service to the Chemical & Bioscience clusters in the sub-region.

The ‘Skills Broker’ service assists companies with training needs analysis and helps them achieve their training requirements with funding support at 70%. 

The overarching aim is to;

  1. Raise the productivity, competitiveness and performance of employers; and
  2. improve the employment opportunities of individuals

Steering Group

In order to ensure that the brokerage achieves its full potential CIRCE has established a Steering Group to guide, inform and support the programme and the Skills Broker Manager.

The Steering Group contributes to the success of the brokerage by assisting in the following ways: 

Ø      Strategic support & valuable insight into cluster skills issues

Ø      Feedback and assessment of changing needs in the sector

Ø      Assistance with promotion and dissemination of the programme materials to the target audience
