Join over 200 policymakers and practitioners at the sixth annual Skills Summit, to determine how civil servants, employers and educators can work in partnership to develop effective 'pathways to productivity'.
With skills at the centre of debates about the UK's relatively low productivity, the 2016 Summit will examine how to create the high-quality Apprenticeships, talent management schemes and working conditions integral to solving the country's 'productivity puzzle'.
Participate in a programme that gives you access to top speakers, including:
Peter Lauener, Chief Executive, Skills Funding Agency and Education Funding Agency
Iain Wright MP, Chairman, BIS Select Committee
Vince Cable, Former Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills & Liberal Democrat MP for Twickenham

Develop your understanding and help to shape the direction of policy, by discussing issues such as:
Apprenticeships: creating high-quality programmes, attracting young people
Talent management: how can employers effectively nurture their staff?
Workforce development: ensuring HR leaders are equipped for future challenges
