Demonstrating the social value of further education colleges in Wales

ColegauCymru and the National Training Federation for Wales (NTFW) have published new data which highlights the far-reaching economic and social consequences of apprenticeship funding cuts in Wales. 

The research, carried out by The Centre for Economics and Business Research (Cebr), highlights the significant economic and social cost of apprenticeship funding cuts, particularly affecting the most deprived communities, and critical sectors like healthcare and construction. The findings emphasise the need for sustained investment in apprenticeships to support economic growth and workforce development in Wales.
