Improving the level 3 skills offer for adults

About the consultation

The WMCA is committed to increasing the proportion of its residents who are qualified to level 3. Expanding and improving our level 3 training offer for adults is critical to achieving this. We are seeking your views on our proposals.

This consultation is predominantly for individual Local Authorities, colleges and training providers who are delivering – or would like to deliver – level 3 training provision in the West Midlands Combined Authority area. However, we would also welcome responses from wider stakeholders with an interest in adult learning and training.

The consultation was issued on 16th March 2023 and will run until 10:00am on 24th April 2023.

Please read the supporting consultation documentation before completing your response.
