There is now information available from SfC from the accumulated data which you have sent to them. They are asking what information you would like and in what format?

The questions that we were asked:

1.       What information would help your organisation plan for the next 12 months

2.       What information would help you perform a training needs/gap analysis?

3.       How would the information be best presented?

If you have any opinions on this or any other information you would like please contact Jack Moorehead on 01772 761855 or by email jackmoorehead@lwdp.org.uk
