Skills gap in the marine engineering sector to be explored
The highly topical issue of the skills gap in the marine sector is to come under the spotlight as part of London International Shipping Week 2013 when the Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology (IMarEST) and specialist engineering recruitment agency Matchtech will hold an ‘invitation only’ roundtable to discuss and debate this vital topic.
Chaired by Rear Admiral Nigel Guild CB, Chairman of the Engineering Council, and a Past President of IMarEST, the roundtable, taking place on Monday 9th September at IMarEST headquarters in London, will attract key organisations from the marine industry, defence, academia and training, providing those taking part with the opportunity to discuss the skills shortages in marine engineering within the sector.
There is also a questionnaire aimed to get at getting a broader view of the skills gap in the sector which is open to all to complete; this and can be filled out by visiting:
