World Skills UK have created a Spotlight on Careers series which shines a light on skills for today and the exciting challenges of tomorrow.

As climate change and environmental concerns top the social, political and youth agenda, World Skills UK have focused on green jobs in the fourth of their series of Spotlight Talks.

The government’s ambition to create 2 million jobs in the green economy by 2030 is an exciting opportunity for young people to develop skills which will help accelerate the UK towards net-zero.

Sessions are broken down into 30-minute slots and contain live Q&As, videos and expert career advice. Examples of the topics explored include:

  • The switch to electric vehicles and how it will revolutionise the skills needed in the automotive industry
  • New methods of designing and building houses to be more energy efficient is opening up new routes into the construction industry
  • How STEM skills are fundamental to addressing the challenges of climate change.

World Skills UK work with industry leaders in their fields to bring you high-quality content which will excite all audiences and is FREE to access.

This new and improved format is available live to watch and then on demand, to fit flexibly within your timetable.
