Sector Skills Councils

Sector Skills Councils (SSCs) are organizations in the UK that represent specific industries and work to align education and training with the skills needs of those sectors. They gather input from employers, industry experts, and other stakeholders to identify skill gaps, help develop qualifications, and promote best practices in workforce development. By doing so, SSCs aim to ensure that workers are equipped with the right skills to meet current and future job demands, ultimately enhancing the competitiveness of their industries and contributing to economic growth.
