Dear all,



Equal-works is very excited about this month's Live Debate on Skills
as
we have secured Bill Rammell MP, Minister of State
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minister_of_State>  for Lifelong
Learning,
Further and Higher Education, Department for Innovation, Universities
and Skills (DIUS)



I have attached a flyer for the event for your information, please
feel
free to forward to any colleagues who may have an interest in this
area. 

 
 Find out and discuss the Government's approach to the big skills
challenges including basic skills, apprenticeship, social inclusion
and
diversity, the employer/college partnership, career change for older
workers, opportunities for women and the opportunities presented by
growing industrial sectors and the social economy.
 

Discuss how those with the lowest and least marketable skills can
enter
and remain economically active.
