WARWICKSHIRE MEANS BUSINESS

Build Back Stronger workshops hit the ground running

Following the success of the first Build Back Stronger workshop from Warwickshire County Council's Skills Team (please click here for a recording if you were unable to attend), dates have been announced for the remaining workshops.

These workshops ​are aimed at supporting employers to Build Back Stronger as they emerge from lockdown. Each has a different focus to enable employers to welcome back their workforce after home working and furlough. They offer guidance on workforce reshaping, redundancy support and skills succession planning to ensure there is a strong pipeline of talent in their business as the economy recovers. 

These workshops are a free tool that can be accessed by any Warwickshire business, so please feel free to promote to your employers and business contacts who may welcome the support available.

The ​second workshop will take place on Wednesday May 5th at 1pm and booking is available via the Eventbrite link below. The remaining four workshops dates and booking information are also detailed below.
