Part of the role of SkillsActive is to draw together relevant expertise to meet the workforce development needs of employers.
To help ensure the services it offers meet the requirements of a wide range of outdoor employers, SkillsActive consults with different expert groups made up of specialist representatives from training providers, employers and individuals.
We also work closely with NGBs, training providers, funding and development agencies.
Much of our work with our sectors comes through expert groups and committees, and in the outdoors we have two primary stakeholder groups:
Outdoor Employers' Group
SkillsActive's OEG ensures a co-ordinated view on issues particular to the outdoors part of the sector and helps to lead and direct issues such as workforce development, labour market research and training frameworks. More information can be found on the OEG page.
Adventure Activities Industry Advisory Committee
Made up of representatives from stakeholders across the UK adventure activities sector the AAIAC aims to identify and promote good practise, and to advise government and its agencies accordingly. More information can be found on the AAIAC page.
