Details

The Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) business plan, which is updated on a monthly basis, sets out several indicators on skills. We chose these indicators to help the public to judge whether our policies and reforms are having the effect they want. They’re split into ‘input’ indicators on how public money is spent, and ‘impact’ indicators on the results we’re trying to achieve.
