Essex Chambers of Commerce is proud to lead the Essex Local Skills Improvement Plan (LSIP) on behalf of the Department for Education (Skills England).

By working closely with employers, training providers, and local authorities, we’re identifying key skills priorities and driving real change across Essex. Our collaborative efforts focus on bridging sector-specific skills gaps, expanding training opportunities, and ensuring education aligns with the needs of local businesses.

Find out how our work is making a difference—helping learners develop the skills they need to succeed and supporting employers in accessing the talent they need to grow.

To stay up to date with the latest local and national developments, our Essex LSIP e-Bulletin is published every two months.
