Title: Employer choice - a threat or opportunity? Employer’s are demanding more flexible, convenient relevant and accessible learning, they are also being empowered to influence how and where learning funding is directed. Is this increased choice a threat to learning providers or is it an opportunity to engage more powerfully with employers as a trusted partner? To what extent do our existing delivery models help or hinder us? What do we need to do today to become a next generation learning provider? This interactive workshop will look at evidence from the world of work to help learning providers to position themselves s a partner of choice.
