Cogent is working with employers to define the skills,
competencies and qualifications required for a world-class sector.
Getting involved with Cogent gives you the chance to shape

We want to hear from you, share your experiences and present your views

Strategic Skills Projects
Cogent has developed nine strategic projects aimed at
ensuring that employers of all sizes across its footprint have the skilled and
qualified people they need to compete. Click here for our nine
Strategic skills projects for industry
This programme of work is designed to meet the immediate and
medium term skills needs of employers. Through the Cogent Sector Skills Agreement
(SSA) employers have told us that they
have real skills shortages in:
- innovation
and business improvement techniques;
- change
and project management;
- health
and safety;
- management
and leadership.
The SSA has also confirmed that with an ageing workforce
demand for new recruits during the next ten years will be high, and employers
will need to look beyond the traditional pool of candidates to find the
talented people they need.
