All members are welcome and bring their own unique perspective to the network.
Welcome to GET
GET, an acronym for Guidance, Employment and Training was formed in 1989, with a mission to provide an ‘umbrella’ Infrastructure Group for the adult skills not-for-profit sector of Cambridgeshire.
Over the years membership has grown significantly, becoming more fluid and diverse. It includes voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations (VCSE), statutory bodies, private sector providers and individuals.
The original organisation that delivered GET has closed and the work has been taken over by Cambridge Council for Voluntary Service (CCVS).
It is our intention to continue with the work and to build this network to cover all those with an interest in learning and skills across the county.
Together GET represents;
-
Over 63,000 individuals being supported through our members organisations
-
In excess of 2,100 members of staff employed in organisations whose size ranges from no paid staff to over 500.
-
Over 1,540 active volunteers working in a wide range of service sectors.
