Learner Focus Project Findings
We are pleased to share our recent Learner Focus Project report with our partners and businesses across the Sussex area.
Learner Focus Project Findings
The Learner Focus Project report contains background, key findings and suggested actions from a short project that was undertaken due to a gap we identified in our intelligence during the development of the LSIP report. Throughout the LSIP process we have spoken to employers and providers but had not yet engaged with learners. The aim was to undertake a series of workshops with learners and adults seeking employment in order to hear their views on employability skills and future employment.

Skills Intelligence and Conversations Matrix
This resources collates the skills data and intelligence available from LSIP partners across the Sussex area, along with information regarding the skills conversations taking place through meetings, networks and groups in Sussex.
Skills Intelligence and Conversations Matrix
The matrix has been produced with support from our core partners. It aims to provide a comprehensive resource of existing employer led "conversations" and "intelligence" relating to all things skills and workforce development, across the whole of the Sussex area.
We hope the matrix will support local education providers, employers, and strategic leaders to access skills intelligence sources, gain an understanding of the skills conversations landscape and to help identify opportunities for collaboration and sharing of resources.
Sussex Skills Taxonomy
Sussex Skills Taxonomy is an interactive resource that shows the skills requirements of job roles across the Sussex area.
Sussex Skills Taxonomy
Sussex Skills Taxonomy is a tool that has been developed by NESTA working in partnership with Future Skills Sussex during the LSIP Trailblazer in 2022. The skills taxonomy demonstrates the skills required for job roles across Sussex.
This careers resource provides a visual of the skills that are related to a particular job role within a sector.
The skills taxonomy was put together as part of a wider project undertaken by NESTA for an Open Jobs Obsertavory for Sussex during the Sussex LSIP Trailblazer process in 2022. For the full report see here.
SkillsMatcher
SkillsMatcher is a 'jobs similarities' tool for use in matching skills with careers opportunities.
The tool that has been developed by NESTA working in partnership with Future Skills Sussex.
SkillsMatcher
The SkillsMatcher app helps find new career opportunities that are in line with your existing skills sets, finds similar jobs to a job you may be considering or already doing. It explains why one job is similar to another i.e. their common skills and what skills they will need to obtain. The tool also gives information on similar occupations and the skills level of these roles.
This is a test model but we hope it will be a useful careers and employment resource.
For further information on this project see NESTA's report here.
It is a priority to ensure the skills provision on offer in Sussex matches the skills needs of local businesses.
