Southampton Information, Training & Employment Services (SITES)
SITES is a partnership of the local agencies and organisations that provide employment and training support to Southampton residents.

The partnership is overseen by a board of around 20 members, with representatives from each key sector that contributes to the aims of SITES. This includes organisations from the public, private and business sectors, education and training providers, as well as voluntary and community groups. The partnership is supported by Southampton City Council.

· Provide a coordinated approach to skills shortages, labour market issues and social inclusion in the Southampton area.
· Through the work of providers and partners, reach people from disadvantged backgrounds, as well as those who live within the priority neighbourhoods of Southampton to increase their employability and skill levels.
