West Midlands Combined Authority awarded a contract to Learning Into Employment Academy for the delivery of ESOL Phase 2 training.

The contract, valued at £100,000, aimed to further test and expand a quality and flexible ESOL short training offer to Universal Credit claimants whose main barrier to job entry was identified as the level of English needed to be operable in the workplace.

The program also sought to support individuals in progressing to additional learning and to improve their chances of holding down employment and achieving in-work progression through the range of skills offers available to employers and residents.
