UTIC is calling for Registrations of Interest in the AUKUS Workforce Development Challenge which is seeking innovative strategies to strengthen the training environment for technologists who develop critical undersea technology and manufacturing professionals who build and support undersea technologies.
Open to teams from Australia, UK and USA, the Challenge calls on academic and vocational institutions to propose innovative workforce development strategies and encourages collaboration across the three AUKUS members.
Teams will be required to address one of the following categories:
- Strengthening the training environment for current/future technologists who develop critical undersea technology.
- Strengthening the training environment for manufacturing professionals who build and support undersea technology applications.
$15,000 will be awarded in each category to be used for related scholarships or similar academic program investments.
