The CIPD work in partnership with Haymarket Media Group Ltd to deliver CIPD Festival of Work
City & Guilds
For almost 150 years we’ve been the skills partner that people, organisations and economies trust, helping to develop their skills for growth and changing lives every day. Everything we do is focused on developing and delivering high-quality training, qualifications, assessments, and credentials that lead to jobs and meet the changing needs of industry. Our digital development solutions powered by Kineo, part of City & Guilds, improve business performance and drive better business outcomes through global workplace learning technologies, platforms, and high impact content. We’re developing the skills, behaviours and mindsets for leaders and managers with our City & Guilds leadership & management offer, which is delivered by The Oxford Group and ILM, ensuring business excellence for the organisations we work with. And we’re transforming technical training in specialist disciplines such as engineering, electrical and rail through our City & Guilds Training centres, which includes Intertrain. All our work-based learning programmes are developed and delivered in partnership with industry, so that the competency and confidence gained support better prospects for people, the businesses they work for and wider society. We believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to train and learn regardless of where they start and at whatever stage of their career. It’s in our DNA as a commercial organisation with a strong charitable purpose, which we amplify through our Foundation by focusing on high impact social investment, recognition and advocacy programmes which remove barriers to getting a job, celebrate best practice on the job and advocate for jobs of the future. And by campaigning for systemic improvements across the global skills training system we’re firmly focusing on the next 150 years of skills for jobs.
