Adult training in he UK is and has been for a longtime a joke good for nothing but putting taxpayers money into the hands of lousy bosses who do little or nothing to deserve or earn it. What is worse is that they prey on the enthusiasm of people to retrain and get back into a job and completely dishearten them and stiffle that enthusiasm after all if he company you've been sent to is doing nothing but abusing the system why shouldn't you. I'm not saying that attitude is right or acceptable but during my time trying to retrain it was an attitude i heard more and more as time and the trainee's understanding of what they were at a company for went on.

There is no political will to actually have a good training system in place or even bother too much that the one in place is little more then easy money for those companys that get the contracts as whilst on training your not "unemployed". Such a shame because it creates an atomosphere of do as little as possible and take the system for all it's worth and the vast majority of people that sign up for training are looking for exactly that training for new skills which will shorten at least their time on benefit. Also i don't know about elsewhere but in leicestershire the same people seem to be getting the contracts despite the numerous companys they have run\been a part of in the past that ended badly. Seems to be the case that if they are caught for something shut that company down start a new one and the contract drops straight back into their lap.
