Education and Training Boards

Education and Training Boards (ETBs) are regional organizations that oversee various education and training providers, such as colleges and apprenticeship programs. They play a key role in managing, funding, and supporting vocational education, skill development, and lifelong learning across local areas. ETBs collaborate with government agencies to ensure that training aligns with community needs and employment opportunities, facilitating workforce development. They aim to provide accessible, high-quality education tailored to local economic requirements, helping individuals gain skills for employment and personal growth within their communities.
