Public sector leaders do not shrink from their responsibilities to tackle the challenges ahead to rationalise and transform public sector services.
If the UK is to emerge successfully from recession, the country must be able to compete in the hyper-competitive global economy. The development of workforce skills is essential to providing competitive advantage for the private sector, as well as ensuring an agile and skilled workforce in the public sector that is able to respond to the manifestations from public sector reductions.
Simultaneously, it is essential that the skills development of public sector workers enables them to possess transferable skills to work successfully in other sectors, either providing public sector services from a different service and employment relationship, or to avoid long-term unemployment that would cause further economic and societal problems.
With efficiency and the public sector workforce such key issues, this national conference will bring together key public, private and third sector stakeholders to discuss and debate the main ways of achieving an efficiency across the public sector. With excellent speakers and unrivalled networking opportunities, this is a must-attend event for those who are interested in efficiency savings and workforce development.
The format of the day has been designed to encourage multi-faceted interaction and debate between high profile speakers, industry suppliers, key stakeholders and relevant agencies from industry and government at central and local level.
Join us at Public Sector Workforce Skills 2010 to gain a real understanding of how public sector skills will influence the way that the workforce is developed and public services are delivered, whilst keeping you up to date with the latest initiatives
