LMI bulletin information
Labour Market Information (LMI) refers to any relevant information about the current state of the jobs market.
LMI can include information like:
- The industries and businesses that operate in a certain our local area.
- The types of jobs that exist and what they involve.
- How many of those jobs there are with links to our local area.
- The skills that are currently or will be in high demand.
- Commute and travel to work patterns.
- Typical rates of pay.
- Career progression opportunities.
Why Is LMI Useful?
LMI helps to demystify the jobs market. It helps to take the confusion out of job hunting, career planning, career progression, and changing career. We believe it is important for our students to have accurate and up-to-date information to ensure they are better equipped to make an informed choice and to plan appropriately.
