Skillsmart Retail, the sector skills council for retail, launched a new website for retailers and learning providers last week as the final stage of its re-branding.
The new website, which features four pathways to help users find what they are looking for, has been designed so that it is easy to use.
The Careers section is aimed at promoting retail as an option for young people, graduates, those wanting to progress in their roles and careers advisors, and an area marked Learning Providers features full resources on occupational standards and retail qualifications.
The Employer section includes information on accessing learning and qualifications, as well as products and services to support business development, for both large and small businesses.
The Research pathway, aimed as a resource for journalists and stakeholders, offers current labour market information.
Anne Seaman, Skillsmart Retail’s chief operating officer, said: “We are delighted with the new website which we feel offers visitors to our site an easy-to-use website for anyone interested in retail.
“Visitors to our website have been increasing month by month over the last year. We hope that a more easily-navigable site will encourage more users to find out about retail careers and the skills needed to be successful.”
The new website can be viewed at www.skillsmartretail.com
