Businesses need to be able to attract, develop and retain a diverse pool of talent to meet their current and future skills needs. Access to the right skills enables employers to have high performing, highly productive workplaces, and build the capacity to adapt well to change and disruption.
Our role is to support and encourage Scotland’s businesses to grow and prosper through investment in skills. We do this by advising employers on effective workforce planning, building resilience to disruption, and creating the conditions for long-term sustainability.
Collaborating with our skills and enterprise agency colleagues, we aim to deliver a full suite of easy-to-access inter-agency support for Scotland’s businesses, with SDS leading on the skills agenda.
