Skills/competences developed Continuing Vocational Training Survey Respondents were asked about the skills/competences that they were looking to develop through the provision of CVT courses in 2010. The most frequently mentioned (from a list of prompted responses) were technical, practical or job-specific skills (86%). Although, many of the skills/competences listed were mentioned significantly more by larger organisations, technical, practical or job-specific skills were of similar importance across all size bands (ranging from 85% of 10-49 employers to 91% of 500+ employers).

Continuing Vocational Training Survey General IT skills (e.g. using a computer, word processing, electronic diary, simple spreadsheets or the internet): 29% of 10-49 employers; 60% of 500+ employers IT professional skills (e.g. specialist knowledge or understanding such as producing web pages and writing complex programmes): 11% of 10-49 employers; 42% of 500+ employers Management skills (e.g. leading and managing staff, planning the activities of others): 48% of 10-49 employers; 86% of 500+ employers Office administration skills (e.g. invoicing, time-management): 28% of 10-49 employers; 58% of 500+ employers By sector, organisations with Service sectors are significantly more likely than those in Production and Construction sectors to have been looking to develop: Customer handling skills (e.g. dealing with customers, persuading or influencing others): 62% of Service sector organisations; 36% of Production and Construction sector organisations Oral or written communication skills (e.g. English, including making speeches or presentations, reading long documents such as long reports, manuals, articles or books): 41% of Service sector organisations; 24% of Production and Construction sector organisations Team working skills (e.g. dealing with colleagues, working together): 62% of Service sector organisations; 49% of Production and Construction sector organisations Respondents specifying any of these skills or competences were asked which had been the most important to the organisation in terms of the number of all <strong>training</strong> hours on CVT courses within paid working time. Again, technical, practical or job-specific skills are most frequently cited (57%), with customer handling skills next most common but much less frequently mentioned (14%). 47
