Details

This dashboard supports local skills planning and delivery by providing up-to-date information and published data on local skills, education and employment.

Data is provided at bespoke geographies (including local skills improvement plan (LSIP) areas) in an easy-to-navigate format alongside links to additional resources and data downloads.

The dashboard contains:

• an overview of labour market and skills data for selected geographic locations, such as LSIP area, local enterprise partnership (LEP) and mayoral combined authority (MCA)
• a searchable map where you can find leading indicators on local economy and skills, including employment, jobs, businesses, skills and destinations over time
• additional breakdowns such as local authority, occupation, learner age and provision type
• links to additional local data sources and tools including the Office for National Statistics (ONS) subnational indicators explorer, higher education data sources and job quality indicators
• bespoke download of dashboard data to enable further analysis and sharing

The underlying data is available at local authority district and regional level in addition to the LSIP, LEP and MCA breakdowns.
