<p>The department recently conducted the latest Employer Skills Survey, which provides
robust assessments of skills shortages across the UK by region and by sector. The
results of this survey will be published later in 2018 and will provide insight into
different industries’ skill needs. Whilst we cannot identify General Aviation specifically
through the survey, data relating to the aviation sector as a whole will be made available
to the public. Findings from the previous Employer Skills Survey in 2015, which was
run by the UK Commission for Employment and Skills, are available on <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/ukces-employer-skills-survey-2015"
target="_blank">GOV.UK</a>. The department also holds responsibility for Working Futures,
which provides labour market projections at: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/uk-labour-market-projections-2014-to-2024"

</p><p>The department is also making our skills system more responsive to employer
needs. As part of this, the department is forming Skills Advisory Panels, which aim
to bring about a closer alignment between skills supply (from FE Colleges, training
providers, apprenticeships, as well as centrally-held programmes) and local employer
demand.<strong> <br> </strong></p>
