Using Labour Market Information - with eLMI
Why should you choose this event?
Understanding and using Labour Market Information (LMI) is critical for providers in developing an employer responsive provision offer. However many providers do not understand or exploit LMI to its full potential.
With the WCS eLMI tool providers can get detailed insight into different employer markets and current levels of employer engagement that can help inform how to strategically plan, market and develop the delivery of provision to employers.
There are many sources of LMI and skills forecasts which could be a valuable resource when planning for skills development, but it is often an underused or misunderstood resource.
This workshop will enable providers to use the eLMI tool to provide their business with targeted information regarding employers by geographic area.
