Engineering, Electrification and Skills for the Future (Code: C1600)

This conference will provide an opportunity to receive updates from industry and education experts, while networking, sharing and disseminating effective practice. We will explore why Engineering, Manufacturing and Electrification are a priority for increasing skills, while exploring how we can work collaboratively to meet the needs of the future learners and apprentices. We will also explore how we use labour market information to support effective curriculum design and delivery, allowing us to address skills shortages, and the growth of the technical STEM talent pipeline.
