Skills for Health Academy North West

The Skills for Health Academy North West works with a range of partners to deliver education and learning programmes for people who wish to work, or who are currently working in the healthcare sector. With the support of NHS organisations the Academy coordinates and delivers programmes aimed at promoting the NHS as a career of choice for young people and supporting pre-employment programmes aimed at getting people on working age benefits back into work. It also supports the delivery of a range of workforce activities to widen participation and the development of staff currently employed at Bands 1-4.
