Working with our sectors

We aim to ensure we offer tangible benefits to employers no matter which of the industries you work in.

We ensure we have staff with knowledge and expertise in your area. To offer the most comprehensive support to our members we also work closely with key partners and industry bodies.


Sport and Recreation

Sport and recreation relies on a vast amount of skilled staff of volunteers and employees and is coming under pressure to deliver a workforce up to the task of providing the Olympics and its legacy.

Health and Fitness

Health and fitness is one of the fastest growing sectors in the UK economy, and is increasingly being used by the government to help deliver public activity and health targets.

At SkillsActive we understand the role of health and fitness. Find out more about our work with the sector.

We also know that effective partnerships are important to offer the best support to the industry so we have formed a close membership alliance with the Fitness Industry Association (FIA). Find out more

Playwork

SkillsActive worked to create the first UK playwork strategy. We have united with play centres across the UK to ensure that playworkers get the support they need and that the strategy is effectively implemented.

SkillsActive has also developed member benefits specifically for the playwork sector, including a 50% discount on the Workforce Development CD-rom, an essential tool for developing the skills of your staff.

The Outdoors

As an industry estimated to be worth £1.4 billion a year to the UK economy, the Outdoors relies on thousands of highly skilled salaried and voluntary staff. Many of these skills are unique to the sector and can only be developed with the right training and support.

Caravans

The caravan industry is seeing continual growth leading to a great demand and need to train its staff, from engineers to seasonal workers. We work to help these organisations balance their needs and also form a close working relationship with CITO, Caravan Industry Training Ltd.
