| Popis: | This article reviews the training projects and initiatives supported by Edinburgh District Council and draws conclusions from the successful track record of a number of the projects. These refer mainly to factors which contribute to the success of training for the long‐term unemployed and therefore may be useful to anyone developing new training projects. Similarly, they may help those who are pondering how Employment Training may usefully develop. Edinburgh District Council's support for training lies within its economic development function, as opposed to the Regional Council, where it lies with their education function. With this in mind, the District Council's criteria for supporting training have had to be plainly established. These are, that projects must be “exemplary, innovative, and catalytic”, and there must be no duplication of other provision. They should address specific needs amongst the unemployed, and must supply skills which are needed for the development of Edinburgh's economy. |
