Post-school Educational Provision (for employers)

In the future how often do you feel that people may need to retrain in their working lives?

  1. i think people will have to retrain probably every decade. as the pace of change accelerates, many different skills will be required, but without people skills, they won't succeed.
  2. probably a few times
  3. 2-3 times
  4. cpd should be ongoing throughout the duration of working lives as people need to keep up with new initiatives, legislation, and innovative practices.
  5. learning should be a continuous part of working life. there are opportunities here for better coordinated links between further education and businesses, to the benefit of both.
  6. 2 or 3 times in life depends on each person.
  7. every 10 years
  8. difficult to say but definitely more often now than 15 years ago. it’s important that relevant courses are accessible as not everyone who needs or wishes to retrain is straight from school.
  9. 10 m.
  10. often, depending on the direction of work in the region.
