Key challenges facing regions

UNDER UTILISING LOCAL TALENT

1. Workforce career mobility requires people to be supported from one industry into another

2. Transferrable skills which are valued in different sectors help to ensure employment is maintained

3. Mobility requires people to know their skills and have access to upskilling support to close gaps

4. Disability employment is a hidden opportunity

1. Education and training are a major creator of careers and yet they do not provide localised career advice to individuals based on future jobs growth

2. Industry alignment and engagement is a compliance and revenue strategy and jobs data is not successfully used in course development

3. Students do not have adequate support to assist with career planning during study and post graduation

Key challenges facing regions

ENGAGED AND ALIGNED LnD SECTOR

1. People require greater awareness of regional career opportunities relevant to their potential and interests

2. Career education is out-dated and new world of work opportunities are not promoted or information about them easily obtained

3. People are generally lazy and time poor when it comes to career planning and career planning experiences need to be fun, easy and personalised
