In November 2022, the Cardiff Capital Region Skills Partnership (CCRSP) published an Employment & Skills Plan 2022–2025 which set out the skills related challenges and opportunities for the key sectors across South East Wales.
More recently, and funded through the Welsh Government Young Persons Guarantee (YPG) workstream, CCRSP has produced a youth-friendly version of the plan using simplified language and visual aids. This has helped to ensure that young people are able to better understand and relate to the content, thus inspiring and motivating a broader audience.
CCRSP invites organisations to utilise their networks and share this information more broadly. The revised version of the Employment and Skills Plan 2022-25 provides a valuable insight into the key sectors across South East Wales and the challenges and opportunities they face.
As a follow-up activity, and to further enhance our youth-friendly Employment and Skills Plan, we are also in the process of producing a range of sector focussed career guides for Advanced Materials and Manufacturing, Compound Semiconductors, Construction, Creative and the Foundational Economy. These will be produced in a flip-book style and will clearly outline the priority sectors across the Cardiff Capital Region. The documents will provide details about the sector’s impact on the region, the job roles on offer and a corresponding careers roadmap.
The guides will help young people to make well-informed decisions about their future and equip them for prosperous careers. As soon as the career guides are available, we will share them with our networks and stakeholders.
