Mark Stewart - 21 September 2016

Developing the right skills for the future of the UK aerospace industry

In his lively and interactive address, Mark Stewart discussed the need to develop the right skills for the future of the UK aerospace industry.

Mark explained the need to get the best people with the right skills to design and manufacture the next generations of civil aircraft in the UK and how the UK aerospace industry and particularly Airbus are working to address this need for skilled workers.

Mark also discussed Airbus priorities for 2016, that are to start early with young people’s careers by working with schools, Local Enterprise Partnerships, apprenticeships and funding bursaries to encourage and give opportunities for people to work in the exciting aerospace sector.
