Government policy on smart cities has a strong focus on electric vehicles which has exacerbated the significant skills gap already present in the UK electricity power sector. Aston University has developed in close partnership with industry the Electrical Power Foundation Degree which provides students with the relevant theoretical knowledge to support a comprehensive work-based training programme. This session details how our tripartite relationship has evolved between university industrial and professional partners and students to design a work-based training scheme that adapts to the changing needs of industry and supports the learning diversity of the student cohort.
