If you are an employer with less than 50 employees, or a sole trader, training may not be at the top of your list of concerns at the moment, but you may have staff who are not as busy as usual, or who may be on short-time working. Now could be a good opportunity to let them spend time improving their basic skills or addressing other training needs.
