Adopting global skills innovation for the UK
This report is the culmination of a seven-month research project led by the RSA in partnership with WorldSkills UK and supported by FETL. It has investigated inspiring examples of global innovation in TVET and skills, with the aim of drawing out lessons for UK policymakers and practitioners, including the FE sector, as they work to confront the major skills, productivity and social inclusion challenges facing Britain. Working with WorldSkills UK has allowed us to examine a relatively under-explored but highly promising platform for skills innovation: skills competitions.
