UK parking sector skills strategy

There are a few specific parking qualifications but, for various reasons, the number of people working towards these qualifications has been disappointing. In 2004 the British Parking Association, saw the need to develop a skills strategy for the UK parking sector. The aim was to increase professionalism and productivity by creating a qualifications framework and defining standards. This, in turn, would help improve the status of the people working in the UK parking sector and reassure the members of the public using its services. This report sets out that strategy. It highlights current and future skills needs, analyses gaps and weaknesses in the workforce and sets the direction for the future skills agenda for parking. It covers the people directly involved in parking, but does not try to include others, such as suppliers and those who make parking equipment. Although vital to the parking sector, their training and skills needs are met elsewhere.
