Chief Executive’s comment

CHIEF EXECUTIVE

At the time of writing, I have been Chief Executive of Cambridgeshire Chambers of Commerce for a month and what a full-packed month it has been. A key highlight has been meeting our members at Return to the Workplace events that we held at member venues across the county from 17 May. It was a pleasure to meet so many of you face-to-face and I look forward to meeting many more of you in the near future. I have also been working on the Local Improvement Skills Plan with Shaun Hindle, Chair of the Peterborough Chamber of Commerce and member of our Learning & Skills Sector committee. The Local Skills Improvement Plan will help bring employers, colleges, other training providers, and local stakeholders together to set out the key changes needed to make technical skills training more responsive to employers’ skills need, and tailor provision to the challenges and opportunities most relevant to the local area. I hope to be able to share more details with you in the next issue of connected.
