BAe Systems’ Share of Employment in Knowledge Intensive Production for Selected Sample Clauses

BAe Systems’ Share of Employment in Knowledge Intensive Production for Selected. MAA Sub-regions West of England Manchester Newcastle Partnership of Urban South Hampshire Hull and Humber Ports Pennine Lancashire Fylde Coast 0 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% Pennine Lancashire is one of the most manufacturing dependent areas of the UK: 25% of all employment is in the sector, with many more employed indirectly in support services. In recent years many jobs in low wage, low value, high volume sub-sectors have been lost. However, there are also numerous local companies which are not only beacons of innovation and best practice in Pennine Lancashire, but worldwide leaders. They are engaged in a range of activities – advanced engineering, electronics, advanced flexible materials. These, together with the remaining traditional companies which are capable of making the transition represent an opportunity for the area. It is recognised that in uncertain economic times the aerospace and advanced manufacturing sectors provide the Pennine Lancashire economy with a strong foundation. The Pennine Lancashire Economic Strategy, which underpins the MAA, details a number of strategic interventions aimed at harnessing these assets. Increasing the Higher Education provision in the area is a vital component in growing the local economy, and both Burnley and Blackburn colleges are tailoring their HE offer to reflect the profile of the local economy, as well as linking more effectively to businesses. Providing degree level qualifications within Pennine Lancashire is also important in raising aspirations, and giving people the skills and qualifications to access new higher value job opportunities planned for the area, as well as those which will open up through improved transports links. We believe significant economic outcomes can be realised through adopting a three pronged approach to regeneration: improved connections to areas of growth; restructuring the Pennine Lancashire economy to achieve long-term sustainable endogenous growth, and improving access to opportunities for local people. Pennine Lancashire is an area of untapped potential, conservative estimates suggest that an additional £384m of GVA can be achieved through the delivery of this agreement, closing over a quarter of the output gap that currently exists with the wider North West. It is evident that there is a degree of interdependency between the interventions; however this estimate does not take into account the agglomeration effects of the schemes, which would undoubtedly lead to significant additional GVA ...

  • Workforce Development MPC’s technical training program is having a major impact in the region. Online modules, short courses, webinars, and on site/videoconferencing events are reaching state and local transportation department employees and tribal transportation planners. By harnessing the capabilities of the four LTAP centers located at the MPC universities and the multimedia capabilities of the Transportation Learning Network (which was founded and is partly funded by MPC) more than 76 technical training events were offered in the second half of 2015. These training modules and short courses are critical to transportation agencies that need to improve or renew the skills of engineering technicians and other frontline workers. Many MPC courses or training events result in the certification of workers. Even when certification is not required, TLN’s online learning management systems allow employees and employers to set learning goals and monitor progress towards these goals. MPC is making another major impact in workforce development. Altogether, 57 graduate students are working on MPC research projects under the tutelage of faculty researchers. These graduate students represent the researchers and technical analysts of tomorrow. Without the MPC program and the stipend funds that it provides, these students may not be specializing in transportation; but, instead would be seeking career opportunities in other fields. The MPC research program allows faculty to mentor graduate students while allowing the students to work on projects for federal and state transportation agencies—thereby, gaining valuable practical experience.
