Lichfield Discovery

Learn, Grow, Succeed

The Lichfield Discovery Programme will help people in Lichfield access new qualifications and find fulfilling employment, regardless of their starting point. We strive to boost employability, bridge skills gaps, support economic growth, and reduce unemployment rates.

We can tailor this support to any eligible and interested person, depending on their needs and circumstances. We aim to improve residents' life skills to enhance their employment opportunities. This programme is not just for those seeking work; currently employed residents can also benefit from it.

Every resident in the Lichfield Discovery Programme will be assigned a dedicated Navigator who will guide them throughout their journey.

Residents can access various interventions and support services, ensuring they receive the right help.

The project will develop and deliver training courses across several critical sectors identified as growth areas and significant skill shortages. Making the Lichfield Discovery Programme a win-win for the wider business community and individuals.

These include: 

  • Accountancy

  • Building and Construction

  • Digital Marketing

  • Cyber Security

  • Social Care

  • Horticulture

  • Catering
