Wednesday, 13 November 2024
9:30am – 4pm | Cardiff City Stadium, Leckwith, Cardiff
Learning and Work Institute is holding its Employment and Skills Wales Convention – ‘Moving forward in times of change’ – on the 13th November 2024 at Cardiff City Stadium.
The focus of this year’s convention will be on the impact of global changes such as the transition to a low carbon economy, the disruptive nature of AI and automation and what an ageing population means for Wales’ workforce.
This key event gathers policy makers, practitioners, and leaders across the sector in Wales to help share the latest thinking, research and developments and to influence future policy. With delegates from across the sector, the Convention is an important opportunity to network, to hear the latest developments and research, and to shape the future direction of policy in Wales.
