Don’t get left behind: Businesses urged to train staff through new advertising
campaign
On 16 July the LSC launched a new advertising campaign urging employers
to invest in training to achieve business success through Train to Gain,
an impartial skills brokerage service. Click

The Train to Gain Campaign
This advertising
campaign is the second phase of a wider, fully integrated media and
communications campaign to improve the nation’s skills. It urges people
to take control of their future by investing in skills, using the strapline
‘Our future. It’s in our hands’ and images of hands to communicate the
message.
The television, radio and press advertisements are designed to highlight
the importance of training and the positive impact it can have on the
future of a business. These adverts also feature the hands metaphor.
