The Upskilling Project

Community CVS are offering free staff development training to organisations contributing to positive health in Lancashire.

Organisations get a free diagnostic which ensures a bespoke training plan is tailored for your teams. This is for you if; you are based in Lancashire, employ 250 employees or less and have either an annual turnover that is equal to or less than 50 million Euros or a balance sheet total that is equal to or less than 43 million Euros

The individuals within these organisations must be employed (in Lancashire) and be Lancashire residents to be eligible.

There are no costs to organisations receiving the training as the project is part funded by ESF / The DWP and Community CVS.

Organisations wishing to access the project can call Chris Trickett on 07947 934509 or email chris.trickett@communitycvs.org.uk to find out how we can help you.
