Employability and Skills Register

A useful resource, developed by the Mid Ulster LMP, is the Employability and Skills Register. The register details a comprehensive range of regional and local employability and skills delivery organisations and initiatives to leave you with a complete understanding of the existing support landscape for employers, the unemployed, economically inactive, or those who are employed but wish to reskill/upskill to access better quality employment.
