A wide range of local organisations came together recently to explore practical ways to collaborate in addressing current and future job vacancies, while also tackling local skills shortages. Hosted at North Kent College’s Gravesend Campus, the event marked the official launch of the Kent & Medway Industry4Council, which unites employers from the engineering and manufacturing sectors. The new partnership offers a practical forum for employers to collaborate with further and higher education institutions, as well as independent training providers.
