About us
Established in 2006 the Greater Manchester Learning Provider Network (GMLPN) is a network of over 100 independent training providers, colleges of further education, schools and universities. We work alongside our key partners to achieve an ever closer alignment between the needs of employers, individuals, communities and the suppliers of skills. The Network’s ambition is to secure a more effective alignment of the skills system to support Greater Manchester’s economic opportunities, as well as the demands and needs of employers, individuals and communities. In achieving this ambition we are committed to working alongside Training Providers (of all types) to raise the overall capacity, capability and responsiveness of the skills system in GM. By doing this we aim to enhance the positive contribution which skills are making to individuals, businesses and the wider economy.
