Prof. William Paterson (left), GBF chairman, said the UK and Germany have a clear advantage from exchanging best practice.
“The German-British Forum is all about business and public policy issues from a broader perspective: skills and training form part of this.”
Robert Bischof (right), Managing Partner, SCCO International, said: “The lack of proper training brings enormous social costs for the UK –
from unemployment and drug abuse to crime and teenage pregnancies. A better education system pays for itself three times over.”|
