Report launched for the Workforce Skills Conference
Today the Science Council has launched its report of its Workforce Skills Conference which took place at the Institute of Physics on the 19th of October 2023. The conference enabled the science, research and innovation community to come together and consider how effectively our current policies are working to meet the UK’s skills challenges, to consider what more can be done, and the role our community can play in strengthening policy in this area.
This event brought together the Science Council’s diverse membership of 35 professional bodies and learned societies, allowing for greater collaboration across our community, and better enabling us to speak with one voice to policymakers on issues of pan-scientific interest.
The conference report in now available to view online. This report captures the discussions held at the conference, providing valuable insights into the range of topics covered, and signposts the fantastic work taking place across our community.
