Belfast Region City Deal -Exciting news for Northern Ireland

SERC principal and chief executive Ken Webb said:

“The announcement of the Belfast Region City Deal is exciting news for Northern Ireland. The Deal will enable SERC to continue to produce high quality skilled individuals to help to match the skills of the workforce with the bespoke skills employers need. It presents an added opportunity for SERC to collaborate with the business sector, Councils and Universities, to help educate, upskill and accredit the current workforce and the next generation of learners and to fully harness the talent that we have right across the region - giving jobs, skills and employability a much-needed boost. SERC is already working in partnership with Lisburn and Castlereagh City Council to develop plans for a leading-edge Innovation Hub in the city centre, creating an e-SERC Centre for Excellence in Innovation and Entrepreneurship.”
