Skills Bootcamps

Skills for Life Skills Bootcamps logo and Funded by Department for Education logo

Skills Bootcamps provide flexible hands-on training courses of up to 16 weeks, giving people the opportunity to build up sector-specific skills and fast-track to an interview with a local employer or progress in their current workplace. For employers, they give you the opportunity to upskill existing employees or recruit from a talent-pool of recently trained individuals to fill vacancies.

Training is part of the Skills for Life fund by the Department for Education and developed locally by the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority, working closely with local employers and training providers.

Skills Bootcamps will help employers play a leading role in the skills system by enabling them to fill skills gaps at a local level.

You can play a key role in designing and developing bespoke training to fit the skills needs of your organisation. You can encourage your existing staff to take a Skills Bootcamp, helping your business to fill skills gaps whilst also investing in retaining your people. Alternatively, you could look to offer a job interview to an individual who completes a Skills Bootcamp and recruit new talent into your organisation.

  • Is your organisation experiencing skills gaps?
  • Do you want to develop roles in your organisation to support business growth?
  • Do you want to recruit new talent to fill vacancies?

Who can apply?

Have a workplace in the Liverpool City Region and:

  • Have existing employees who require upskilling to significantly develop their role responsibilities

  • Are looking to recruit new talent to fill skills gaps
