Cogent industries:
- are strategic (e.g. Nuclear)
- have global reach (e.g. Chemical)
- have science and innovation at their core (e.g. Polymers and Composites)
- are major contributors to national wealth (e.g. Oil and Gas)
- support the infrastructure of society (e.g. Petroleum)
- improve the human condition (e.g. Pharmaceutical)
But, critically, our research indicates that:
- Cogent industries rely on a highly skilled workforce
- higher skills are linked to productivity, innovation and valueaddedness
All impressive descriptors. But what evidence do we have to support this view? How does that evidence fair by national and global measures? And what interventions does Cogent have in response to the Leitch challenge of world-class skills in the global economy? Read more >>
