Education

Skills are critical to the health of the regional economy and the education sector is a high value employer providing skilled employment across the North East.

Ensuring we have a strong skills pipeline into the sectors that are fundamental to the regional economy is critical. This is why we are focused on helping education providers shape their organisations around economic changes, so we are fit for the future.

The North East Skills Advisory Panel was created to bring organisations together around intelligence and data and to consider opportunities to work together on higher skills and discuss the skills supply and demand.

Schools, colleges, universities and training providers are encouraged to use the Strategic Economic Plan and its evidence base to inform their own institutional strategies.
