Clean Energy Industries and Green Skills: Shaping Tomorrow’s Workforce

Our clean energy industries are growing fast, from renewable power to low-carbon technologies.

Join our Local Skills Improvement Plan (LSIP) focus group to discuss the skills, training, and workforce development needed to power this transition. Your insights will help ensure future talent in West of England and North Somerset and Swindon and Wiltshire is ready for the clean energy future.

We'll discuss:

Your insights will help us feed back to education and training providers to help align provision with business needs.
