Fujitsu is a forward-thinking company and we are delighted to be supporting an initiative which will help encourage the next generation of engineers. This is all about working to improve standards across the air conditioning and heat pump sectors, which has to be good news for everyone. I am proud that during my time with Fujitsu we have formed partnerships with a number of colleges throughout the UK with an aim to develop young talent to ensure that our industry is in safe hands for many years to come.
It’s a great pleasure to be the organising partner for WorldSkills UK. It’s so important for us to support skill development and training to secure the future generation of our industry. We are really looking forward to working closely with Fujitsu, WorldSkills UK and of course the competitors.
