Schneider Electric launch skills training programme in the UK and Ireland

Schneider Electric Training aims to offer a holistic approach to training by unifying specialist academies, courses, and digital campuses.

According to Schneider, the move is in response to the chronic skills gap in engineering and the vital role that training plays in addressing the growing complexities associated with digital transformation.

The programme covers everything from AI, the automation of machinery and equipment, to innovations in power and energy management, and safety standards and regulations.

Schneider Electric Training will provide customers, partners, and engineers with a single point of access to the vast array of training options and resources available, covering Schneider Electric solutions, industry focused courses, and professional accreditations.

It will be delivered via several academies for in-person courses, as well as offering a digital campus for on-demand courses for Continuing Professional Development (CPD) via the ‘mySchneider portal.’

Two academies are already up and running, with three more due to be launched by the end of the year.
