Workforce Foresighting Hub Podcast


Due to the speed of innovation, UK organisations need a workforce able to adapt to new capabilities that require different and often higher skill sets. New recruits with the right skills are often in short supply. Failure to address this ongoing challenge could mean the UK misses out on opportunities to take market-leading positions and become competitive on a global scale.


The Workforce Foresighting Hub has been set up to address this challenge and provide insights and recommendations that will help identify and prepare for future skill demands.


In this informative new series, the Workforce Foresighting Hub Podcast brings together coaches, educators, employers, technologists, and conveners from the Catapult Network. We will discuss how we can work together to address the skills challenge, how the Workforce Foresighting Hub works, and what can be done to ensure UK organisations have a skilled workforce ready to adapt to new capabilities aligned with emerging technology and innovation.

    Welcome to the Workforce Foresighting Hub Podcast.


    In the first of this two-part episode, we welcome Dr Richard Clewley and Jonathan Mitchell from the Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education (IfATE).


    By working with employers to shape apprenticeships, T Levels, and higher technical qualifications they are playing a crucial role in preparing the workforce for the challenges of the future. We discuss the role that the Workforce Foresighting Hub plays in helping IfATE achieve these objectives, and how they have benefitted from the programme so far.
