Skills and Capability Exchange for the Energy Industry in Wales
Thursday February 15th 2007, Cardiff City Hall

Organised by the Department of Lifelong Learning and Skills, Welsh Assembly Government

The Skills and Capability Exchange will assess the skills requirements of the energy sector in Wales and the services offered by the providers of training. The intention is to identify:

* gaps in training provision
* issues of funding for training - including priority areas to fund (DELLS has responsibility for the Assembly's delivery of skills provision)
* opportunities for providers in Wales to supply the global market

The Exchange covers the whole of the energy industry - including utility-scale generation, oil and gas, but also specifically renewables. As renewable energy generation is expected to continue to grow significantly over the next ten years, we feel that the skills issues in this sector deserve particular attention (and indeed may benefit greatly from experiences in more "mature" industries), and DELLS have indicated that they are sympathetic to this view.

If you want to influence provision of funding and training for your sector, or if you want DELLS to be made aware of training you offer, see the flyer for more details.
