Welcome to the website for the Alliance of Sector Skills Councils.

The Alliance is a new organisation comprising all 25 licensed UK Sector Skills Councils (SSCs), the employer-driven organisations that together articulate the voice of the employers of 85% of the UK's workforce on skills issues. Its core purpose is to:

• Act as the collective voice of the Sector Skills Councils
• Promote understanding of the role of SSCs within the skills system across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland
• Co-ordinate policy positions and strategic work on skills with stakeholders across the four home nations
• Help build the performance capability of the Sector Skills Councils, to ensure they continue to work effectively on the employer-driven skills agenda
