Labour Market Information (LMI) is a useful tool to help research future jobs in the local area, understand the skills needed for certain roles and the demand for future employment. We actively encourage parents and carers to use the labour market intelligence to support their children.

LMI helps to break down the complex ‘world of work’– ranging from descriptions of different careers, their entry routes, promotional prospects, salaries paid, skills and qualifications needed, etc. Crucially for young people, LMI also covers future demand – what kinds of jobs will be in demand after leaving school and what kinds of skills will be needed.

Links to LMI reports documents can be found at the bottom of the page and a link to a useful resource. https://www.lmiforall.org.uk/

Another useful resource is on the 'Kelsi' website from Kent County Council  where they detail LMI data packs for Kent. Kent Data Packs - LMI

'icanbea' website also has an excellent tool for looking at careers and LMI data.  Click HERE to access
