Thematic Research

SLIM conducts thematic research on a range of skills and employment topics.

Between 2001 and 2010, SLIM ran a series of Learning Themes providing an opportunity to explore specific issues with researchers and practitioners from across the South West.

Since 2010, SLIM has produced thematic research in support of the Employment and Skills Partnership Alliance meetings with themed Alliance Reports (see below).
