The HEA invites members to influence the direction of the Hydrogen and CCS Skills Accelerator Pilot, funded by DESNZ with £400,000.
The pilot is running from September 2025 to March 2026 in South-West (focusing on HyHaul) and in the North-West (focusing on HyNet). Building on the Hydrogen Strategic Skills Plan, the Accelerator will provide some insight around skills availability, build capacity across regions, provide a legacy of open-source programmes and materials, alongside creating options for future skills programmes.
The webinar, together with the Hydrogen Skills Alliance, and the team running the pilot, will provide some background about that the Accelerator and its areas of focus, provide an update on progress and encourage a two-way discussion around proposed next steps, alongside a Q & A session.
The presentation will be made by the Project Lead, Jude Knight, Head of Low Carbon Skills at Cogent Skills alongside Debbie Baker, who is working on next steps.
