SKILLS GAP FEATURE - SCHOOLS TO GSCE


WIND ENERGY INDUSTRY SKILLS GAP TARGET AREA NUMBER 1


GETTING DOWN WITH THE KIDS!


Featuring organisations and companies who have already made significant progress in spreading the word about the industry to primary and secondary schools up to GCSE level, with a view to changing the perception of engineering generally and specifically to attract the desired wind industry workforce for the future


Our regular readers will have seen the introduction to our initiative in previous editions of the magazine.


We make no excuses for repeating that the main point to get over in this important industry feature is that there are a number of initiatives happening throughout the UK but we have found that there is very little ‘joined up thinking’.


As planned we now feature the 1st of our target areas, which is the next step in our progress with the ultimate goal of satisfying the now recognised future skills gap within the industry.


WIND ENERGY NETWORK ‘ROAD- SHOWS’


It is our intention as we progress to tour the UK and organise road-shows at appropriate venues suited to the 4 target areas i.e. selected schools, colleges, universities and company sites/ forces bases – all decision makers from the relevant areas of the industry are enthusiastic about getting involved with this initiative.


WIND INDUSTRY CAREERS – INTERACTIVE WEBSITE We are now well on our way in setting up a very interactive and informative website which will be useful in attracting people of all ages and abilities into the wind energy industry. Please also read our Wind Industry Careers initiative update in this edition to see how we have progressed.


We will keep you informed of developments – in the meantime enjoy reading about some of the initiatives presently happening within this interesting feature.
