Equipping people with the skills for work – Ofsted highlights the ingredients of work-based learning success

An Ofsted report published today showcases twelve outstanding work-based learning providers that excel at providing apprenticeships, NVQs and other vocational qualifications for young people and adults.

The 12 learning and skills providers, from across England, have taken different routes to achieve excellent results but all have been committed to bringing out the potential of their learners, many of whom had previously not achieved educational success.

The report, Twelve outstanding providers of work-based learning, is launched today by Her Majesty's Chief Inspector, Christine Gilbert at the Association of Learning Providers’ (ALP) annual conference. She will highlight how the best training providers in areas such as manufacturing, retail, hospitality and IT, are meeting the skills needs of both learners and employers, while reflecting on Ofsted’s role in identifying and sharing examples of excellent performance to help support improvement.
