Sector Skill Councils

Sector Skill Councils (SSCs) are industry-specific organizations that connect businesses, government, and educational institutions to develop workforce skills aligned with industry needs. They identify skill requirements, create standardized training programs, and ensure that workers are equipped with relevant competencies. By doing so, SSCs help improve employability, reduce skill gaps, and ensure that industries have access to a skilled workforce. Essentially, they act as bridges between industry demands and training systems, promoting a more skilled, adaptable, and efficient workforce tailored to the evolving needs of specific sectors like manufacturing, healthcare, construction, and others.
