Our world is changing faster and with more intensity than ever before. And the world of work is changing with it, requiring people to learn new skills, up-skill, and re-skill many times throughout their working lives. One of Ufi's core beliefs is that vocational technology is the key to ensuring the UK has the skills it needs, opening doors of new opportunity and building a more inclusive, thriving future where everybody benefits. At the launch of our 2025 - 2030 strategy, we asked our partners, supported companies, colleagues, and friends of Ufi which of our core beliefs they most identify with. Scroll through these snaps to see what they chose...
