    North East consortium awarded £3.6m to build regional skills requirement

    A group of North East colleges, training companies and a university have been handed a £3.6m funding pot to deliver skills training over the next two years.

    The consortium, led by East Durham College, has been awarded a share of the wider £165m Local Skills Improvement Fund in order to tackle the North East’s Local Skills Improvement Plan (NELSIP). The plan has been informed by the region’s businesses who were consulted on their requirements and how new technologies and the pursuit of net zero would impact those needs.
