Skills for Justice is the sector skills council covering all employers, employees and volunteers working in the UK justice system.

We provide the support necessary to enable the justice sector to identify its current and future learning needs, to engage more effectively with learning providers in order to meet these needs with high quality development programmes, and to link the acquisition of learning to reputable and valued qualifications.

We do this through four main work programmes:

1. Engaging with and influencing employers, government departments, devolved administrations and all key partners.
2. Understanding and articulating clearly the current and future skills needs of those working in the Justice sector
3. Developing tools and services to improve the skills of the workforce, working with employers, learning providers and individuals
4. Implementing practical solutions to improve the skills of the workforce, working with employers, learning providers and individuals

The justice system touches everybody's lives. We all want to feel safe, and we all want to be treated fairly.

Over half a million people work within the UK justice system. Skills for Justice is responsible for making sure that those people have the right skills to do their job, helping to create a safer society for all.
