Skills Pledge

The Skills Pledge is a voluntary, public commitment by the leadership of an organisation to support all its employees to develop their basic skills, including literacy and numeracy, and work towards relevant, valuable qualifications to at least Level 2.

The purpose is to ensure that all staff are skilled, competent and able to make a full contribution to the success of the organization.

Over 85% of authorities in the North West have already made this commitment to investment in their staff.
