Manufacturing has always been a skills-driven industry. From the factory floor to logistics and operations, the ability to track, validate, and develop workforce competencies<\/b>\u00a0directly impacts productivity, safety, and business resilience.<\/p>\n

But with industries evolving rapidly, how can organisations ensure they\u2019re building the right skills for the future?<\/p>\n

Join Kineo<\/b><\/a>\u00a0and Totara<\/b>\u00a0for a practical conversation on how manufacturing organisations can take a skills-based approach to workforce development. Together, we\u2019ll explore why moving beyond spreadsheets and self-assessments to competency frameworks creates a stronger foundation for building, tracking, and validating skills at scale.<\/p>\n
