Registrations open on 27th February up to 24th March for schools and vocational training organisations and employers for young people to enter the WorldSkills UK national competition development programme.
What are WorldSkills UK competitions?
Skills competitions provide employers, colleges and independent training providers with a proven method of upskilling and developing young people from all backgrounds and abilities. Designed by industry experts, they assess an individual’s knowledge, practical skills and employability attributes against set criteria in a competitive timed-environment.
97% of previous entrants say they improved their technical skills after taking part and 93% said they improved their personal and employability skills. The average earnings of those who participated in WorldSkills UK’s competition development programmes is 60 per cent higher than those of a comparable peer group.
