Our OxLEP Skills and OxLEP Business teams have joined forces to launch the Oxfordshire Apprenticeship Grant Scheme, set to lead to top-class training opportunities across the county.

OxLEP Business have announced details of a brand-new grant scheme for the visitor economy, a key new initiative supporting this vital sector.

The 'Social Contract' is a new £1.7m programme led by OxLEP Skills, set to make a significant and positive impact on Oxfordshire's skills ambitions and will formally-begin during the summer of 2022. 

Hundreds of people from across Oxfordshire gathered around their laptops and tablets for this year's Oxfordshire Apprenticeship Awards, which took place on 19 May.

We've now helped to secure around £1bn-worth of investment for Oxfordshire, leveraging new opportunities benefiting the county’s businesses and communities.

Since the start of the pandemic, we have directly supported over 2,600 Oxfordshire businesses and provided over 12,000 hours of tailored support.

There’s a huge range of sectors and career pathways available to graduates here in Oxfordshire. Our film in collaboration with Oxford Brookes University and the University of Oxford explains why Oxfordshire is a fantastic place to start your career.

Following the UK's departure from the EU, find out what support is available for your business. 

The Oxfordshire Investment Plan translates the ideas and aspiration of our Local Industrial Strategy into a coherent programme of delivery over an initial 10-year period, up until 2030, worth £4.3billion.
