Let’s Talk Skills

Published: 15 April 2025

Let’s Talk Skills is part of our series of Let’s Talk conversations with you. The conversations are part of our continued commitment to listen to people who live and work in North Yorkshire. We want to hear from you!

Please fill in the online survey here www.northyorks.gov.uk/letstalk

We want your input on the training and skills development opportunities North Yorkshire needs.

Whether it’s supporting school leavers or those nearing retirement, offering a fresh start for those stepping onto the career ladder, or providing the tools needed to care for others, your insight helps us ensure that all residents of any age can access lifelong learning.

Understanding what’s important to you means that we can develop a curriculum that reflects the skills needed to ensure North Yorkshire is the best it can be.

This survey takes just a few minutes to complete and draws on your experiences with learning, any challenges you’ve encountered, and your vision for the future of skills in North Yorkshire.

There are several ways you can take part in Let’s Talk Skills:

You can fill in an online survey here www.northyorks.gov.uk/letstalk – the survey is on Commonplace, which is a safe and easy-to-use online tool used to engage with communities, by over 250 organisations including neighbouring councils in Leeds and West Yorkshire.

If you would prefer, you can pick up a paper copy from your local library or main local office and return it in the envelope provided.
