Funded through the Department for Education’s Skills for Life programme, the Staffordshire Skills Bootcamps offer free, flexible training designed to help adults gain in-demand skills to progress into employment.
As part of this latest contract, PTP will deliver a series of specialist Bootcamps aligned with key growth sectors across the county.
PTP’s delivery will support both individuals seeking to upskill and employers looking to address skills shortages within their workforce.
The Bootcamps are designed collaboratively with industry to ensure training meets real employer needs and leads directly to job opportunities, career progression, and improved productivity.
Rob Colbourne, Chief Executive of Performance Through People, said: “We are delighted to have been selected to deliver the Skills Bootcamp programme in Staffordshire.
“This contract enables us to continue our long-standing mission of supporting people into sustainable employment while helping businesses access the skilled talent they need to grow.
“Our focus will be on providing high‑quality training that leads to tangible outcomes for learners and employers alike.”
PTP will work closely with Staffordshire County Council, the Staffordshire Chambers of Commerce, local authorities, employer partners, and industry networks to ensure strong engagement, high-quality outcomes, and improved access to skills across the region.
The Bootcamps form part of a broader effort to support economic growth in Staffordshire by addressing priority sector needs and offering funded opportunities for residents to develop new capabilities.
PTP’s established relationships with employers across logistics, health & social care, early years, green energy, engineering, advanced, manufacturing, management and professional services will play a key role in maximising the impact of the contract.
Employers can benefit not only from newly trained candidates but also from opportunities to upskill existing staff through funded training options.
