New training scheme to help businesses prepare for Commonwealth Games

Thousands of companies across the region are being offered free training in preparation for the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham later this year.

The new training programme has 7,000 places and is aiming to prepare tourism businesses from across the West Midlands to welcome visitors for the sporting spectacle.

Around 3.7 million people are expected to engage with both the games itself and the associated six-month Birmingham 2022 Festival starting in March which has prompted business chiefs in the region to launch the free 'Getting Games Ready' training programme.
