Sustainability and digitalisation have emerged as top priorities for training the transport and logistics sector according to employers.
The findings are part of a report, published by IfATE today, which reveals the ways in which the sector must adapt to meet current and future skills needs. At the time of publication, the transport and logistics sector spans 37 apprenticeships that cover a diverse range of skills in air, rail, road, sea and warehousing, at levels 2 (equivalent to GCSE) through to level 6 (degree level).
Having consulted widely with businesses, the report identified nine core principles and characteristics that employers will in future be asked to prioritise when developing apprenticeships and wider skills training with leading skills government agency IfATE.
