Abstract
This #EngShort looks at whether we have the #skills to create a #sustainablefuture. Organisations are taking actions to reduce their #climateimpact, with half of engineering employers having a #sustainabilitystrategy. But tackling climate change also means planning ahead. Only 1 in 10 engineering employers think they have all the skills they need. #Innovativethinking, #strategicskills and agility are all needed.
By working more closely with schools, colleges, and universities, can industry prioritise #reskilling and #upskilling the current workforce? How do we ensure future #engineers have the right skills to address climate change? Comment below to let us know your thoughts!
