Free IT Upskilling available for Third Sector Organisations
Retrain = Retain!
Next Step have partnered with Create Digital Skills Academy to create a free IT upskilling programme to offer to employers. Our mission is to deliver this programme to companies within Edinburgh to help increase staff retention and help staff feel more assured in their role.
Technology advances at an exponential rate within the work place and keeping your company at the same pace, whilst also maintaining efficiency, can be challenging for companies of all sizes. We understand that its essential for businesses to move with the advancement of technology, however, this causes training gaps and an increase in human error.
We have identified this need for staff to be supported, upskilled and encouraged to further their skills in order to improve their productivity and reduce human error due to lack of training.
Implementing this programme within your workplace will help you get ahead of future developments and technological demands whilst also retaining well-trained confident employees.
