Skilling programmes routinely train people for work that does not exist within travelling distance of where they live.
A certificate that leads to nothing wastes the one asset an unemployed person has left: time.
A constituency-level employer demand register, built from actual employer commitments rather than projections, published openly and used to decide what training is offered.
Volunteers survey employers in each constituency. Publish the register. Only fund training against recorded demand.
Risk
Employers overstate demand. Small samples mislead.
Mitigation
Publish sample sizes. Weight commitments by actual past hiring. Never present a survey as an official statistic.
