GoSkills is the Sector Skills Council for the passenger transport industry.

What is a Sector Skills Council?

  • Independent organisation
  • Licensed by Government
  • Employer led

The four key objectives of an Sector Skills Council are:

  • reducing skills gaps and shortages
  • improving business performance
  • increasing opportunities for learning
  • improving the supply of learning.

GoSkills is keen for operators and others working in the industry to get in touch with us about any issues that they have regarding skills, qualifications and careers. Together, operators and GoSkills can:

  • produce a targeted and sustained attack on skills gaps and employee shortages 
  • improve the public’s knowledge of career opportunities within the passenger transport industry
  • access public funding on behalf of the passenger transport industry
  • devise and publicise the training programmes and other tools and products that the industry requires.

Above all, together we can make the passenger transport industry more competitive, profitable and appealing to potential recruits.

Key people in this sector are:

  • Vicki Ball: Workforce Development Director
  • Lisa Devayya: London Business Adviser
