Labour slams Scottish government's Green Jobs Workforce Academy

LABOUR has slammed the Scottish government’s “sham” Green Jobs Workforce Academy as a sign-posting website hosting job adverts. 

The government’s newly launched academy was announced in last year’s Budget and again as a key election policy earlier this year. 

In the Budget, the SNP said that this would “ensure our workforce has the right skills to meet the requirements of a just transition by supporting existing employees.”
