New College Durham, Campus, Durham DH1 5ES, UK
About the event
This workshop has been designed specifically for SMEs to give you:
Direct insights from industry leaders on the skills they value in their supply chains. Esh Group and Hire Safe Solutions will tell you about their work, their requirements, and their projects, and how this relates to you.
Practical guidance on the capabilities your workforce needs to deliver low-carbon projects successfully. Action Sustainability will deliver a CPD training session to help you understand the theory, the jargon, and the skills behind Net Zero.
Opportunities to connect with training providers and support organisations to upskill your teams efficiently. You'll see first-hand how industry and education are working together locally to close the skills gap, and how New College Durham can support your team's development. Esh Group knows our campus well, having built our £8.9 million Technical and Higher Education Hub right here at Framwellgate Moor.
