WE NEED YOUR INPUT!

This event puts industry firmly in the driving seat. Through two fast-paced, interactive workshops, your input will directly influence the training, courses, and delivery models developed through the new Skills Academy – ensuring they meet the real needs of our sector.

You’ll collaborate with key industry and regional partners including Airbus, Rolls-Royce, GKN, NCC and WECA, who have been working to future-proof the region’s workforce and supply chain.

Your input will help deliver:

  • A strong pipeline of job-ready skills
  • Training aligned to the technologies you need most
  • Clear progression and upskilling opportunities for your workforce
  • A more resilient and competitive regional supply chain

The results of the day along with survey responses, will help aerospace, defence and advanced engineering organisations directly influence training provision, course design, and delivery models—ensuring that colleges, universities, and training providers build programmes that match your needs for 2026–2030.
