Description

One of the dominant contributory factors to the region's productivity and economic growth is the level of education, training and skills within the working age population.

It aims to help businesses to develop and grow, become more resilient and more productive.

- Software Delivery
- Team Working
- Agility in Business
- Product Design and Management
Software Cornwall is looking for training providers who can offer
- delivery of non-accredited Agile training that will cover all job roles within an agile organisation or organisations looking to embrace the agile methodology.
- a training package which is an opportunity for companies to send a team to both enhance their own learning but also meet and network with other like-minded companies to explore new ideas.
-participants the opportunity to develop transferrable skills, both into and within sectors.
All training MUST be delivered in Cornwall as per the requirements of the EU funding.
Software Cornwall require the training to be delivered between September 2021 and December 2021 ideally face to face and then another training package delivered between May 2022 and July 2022.
