Skills and training for marine companies explained - Marine Skills MareNet, Wednesday 30th September 2009
Venue: Unit 11, Hythe Marine Park, Hythe, SO45 6HE
Skills are one of the most important issues for marine companies but the skills and training landscape is complicated and difficult to navigate for many marine companies. To address this, Marine South East is organising a unique Marine Skills MareNet event, where there will be no presentations!
The event will take the form of informal round-table discussions where marine companies can voice their concerns and issues with a number of leading training and skills experts including representatives from SEMTA, The National Skills Academy, Business Link and others. Several highly relevant topics will be discussed including:
- Skills shortages facing marine companies e.g. Aluminium Welding / CAD-CAM
- Marine Apprenticeships
- Leadership and management skills for marine business leaders
- Funding & grants available for the marine sector
- Business improvement techniques - focusing on improving the productivity and competitiveness of marine companies
- Diplomas, NVQ's and skills for the marine industry
The event will be limited to around 25 marine companies. This is your chance to find out how skills and training can improve your bottom line. Please note that this event is not open to training providers and other associated organisations, it is a chance for marine companies to meet for a round table discussion.
There will be an opportunity for delegates to have a tour of the Hythe Marine Park and the 'Solent Refit' Superyacht refit and repair facility prior to the start of the event - with the tour starting at 3.30pm.
MareNet events are free to attend but please be courteous and give us 48 hours notice of cancellation.
