Industry training funding good for sector says ReMIT
‘Lord Mandelson's announcement of increased funding for employee training in the automotive sector is good news for the industry, and as the largest apprentice training provider in the retail motor sector ReMIT looks forward to working with Government to further the cause of developing skills,' said Rob Foulston, Chief Executive of ReMIT, the motor industry apprentice training provider.
ReMIT is the training arm of the Retail Motor Industry Federation (RMIF). Rob Foulston was commenting on the statement on training made by Business Secretary Lord Mandelson as part of the car industry support measures he announced in the House of Lords.
The package included a £35m funding boost for new training, and coincided with the announcement of additional funding from the Higher Education Funding Council.
Foulston added: ‘Investment in training is vital if the sector is to move beyond the current economic situation.'
