Aims
The Joined Up For Jobs Partnership Forum was established alongside the Joined Up For Jobs (JUFJ) Strategy in 2003 with three aims:
What does it do?
The Partnership Forum holds regular meetings (usually on the first Thursday of every second month – see dates below). These meetings provide opportunities for networking and information sharing among local service providers, and updates on local and national policy developments and labour market trends. They give service providers a channel to feed back issues of concern from the ‘frontline’ to inform the evolving Joined Up For Jobs strategy and provide a focus to develop new projects and other working groups and events. The Partnership Forum also shares information via an informal e-network supported by the City of Edinburgh Council and Capital City Partnership, and the Notice Board on this website.
Who can join?
The Partnership Forum is open to all organisations providing employment support and training to adults in the Edinburgh area, and employer representatives who have an interest in building the employability of jobseekers and workers who face disadvantage. It also includes any researchers, policy makers or funders who wish to be more actively involved in and better informed on employment support provision in the area.
How do I ‘sign up’?
This is a voluntary network so there is no ‘formal’ membership.
