A workforce with the requisite skills is a fundamental requirement for a successful hydrogen economy. The International Partnership for Hydrogen and Fuel Cells in the Economy (IPHE) and Clean Hydrogen Partnership have initiated a number of activities to support hydrogen skills and workforce development.
The IPHE Hydrogen Skills Task Force has developed a database of hydrogen job roles and skills and a series of guidance documents to support hydrogen skills and workforce development. The Clean Hydrogen Partnership has initiated and funded several hydrogen skills development initiatives in the EU.
Building on these efforts and drawing on the expertise of panellists from different regions across the globe, the IPHE and Clean Hydrogen Partnership are teaming up to present a webinar to share insights into innovative approaches to hydrogen workforce development based on international experience. The webinar will be of particular interest to countries seeking to expand and strengthen the workforce required to support their emerging hydrogen economies.
