Abstract
This report presents the findings of research on meeting employers' skills upgrading needs through engagement with Further Education (FE) and commercial vocational education and training (VET) providers in Scotland and Northern Ireland. The research was conducted by members of the Employment Research Institute, Napier University, Edinburgh; the Policy Research Institute, Leeds Metropolitan University; and the Business and Management Research Institute, University of Ulster. The research was commissioned by the Sector Skills Development Agency (SSDA) in line with the themes outlined by the SSDA's Research Prospectus 2005-2007 (and with particular relevance to its priorities on ‘understanding the demand for skills' and ‘identifying and meeting skill needs') - this report builds on and complements research already completed in England and Wales
