About this event
Join our quarterly online briefing for Make UK Education and Training members, covering the latest policy updates, labour market data and insight from manufacturers.
The session will help colleges, universities and training providers understand what's happening across manufacturing, where skills needs are changing and what employers are experiencing when recruiting and developing their workforce.
We'll cover:
- Latest policy developments affecting manufacturing, skills and education
- Labour market trends and where manufacturers are seeing skills gaps
- Skills and roles manufacturers are likely to need in the coming years
- What we're hearing directly from Make UK manufacturing members
- Recruitment challenges affecting apprentices, graduates and other new entrants to the sector
The insight from the session can help inform curriculum planning, careers advice, employer engagement and conversations about future skills needs. You'll also have the chance to ask questions and tell us what you'd like us to cover in future member briefings.
Please note: This event is exclusively for Make UK Education and Training members.
