What is Business Interchange?

Business Interchange is a government–funded programme which aims to help the learning and skills sector adopt business placements as a lasting model for developing the vocational skills of their workforce, and ensuring learning provision stays razor-sharp and industry relevant.

By offering guidance and support, Business Interchange enables the use of structured work placements for tutors in the sector, and parallel exchanges which allow industry experts to give time to local colleges and learning providers.

This website will give you details about the practical help and support we offer – and if you have any questions please call our helpline on 0845 6025 291.
