Summary
The five key challenges for employers, the skills system and
Government that Meeting the Low Carbon Skills Challenge
identifies are:
- Delivering significantly higher volumes of generic STEM skills
at all levels;
- Developing and delivering rapidly the specialist skills
solutions that will be needed for emerging sectors and
technologies;
- Getting more young people and adults interested in low carbon
careers, skills and qualifications;
- Stimulating employer demand for and investment in low carbon
skills;
- Replicating good practice rapidly in each of the above, within
and between emerging sectors.
Semta contributed to the Alliance of Sector Skills Council's
