Business Wales will be running free workshops at different locations throughout the country, helping provide guidance for Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs). Transport for Wales are developing a framework of suppliers
to work with them to improve transport connectivity and provide wider benefits to the economies and communities of Wales. The workshops will focus on Human Resources and Sustainability and SMEs will be given the opportunity to look at these requirements in greater detail and provided with advice; improving their chances of winning the tenders. The ‘HR Essentials’ workshop will provide
