Skills and the future of UK
Science, Engineering and Manufacturing Technologies
Each year, Sector Skills
Councils produce reports highlighting the key issues affecting
their sector and the skills implications for their employers. The
aim of the Sector Skills Assessment is to secure for each sector
the range and level of skills in its labour force that are
necessary to achieve productivity at internationally competitive
levels.
The purpose of these reports is to set out a
detailed assessment of skills needs and current provision for Semta
sectors, building on work undertaken previously in Sector Skills Agreements
(SSAs). The 2009 summary and full report for
Science, Engineering and Manufacturing Technologies in the UK can
be downloaded from the links below. Additional reports
for Engineering in each Nation are also available.
