Industry led
Connected Competence is an industry-led initiative which demonstrates a clear commitment to improving safety, as well as increasing the mobility and transferability of a safe, skilled, and productive workforce.
Turning this strategy into reality requires clear leadership and collaboration, with the commitment of companies, industry bodies, and trade unions all working together to make sure Connected Competence is delivered.
The Connected Competence Council
The Connected Competence Council is chaired and represented by senior leaders in industry through contractor and operator organisations, industry associations and Government agencies to provide industry leadership and influence to support safety and efficiency gains through cross-sector collaboration.
The standardisation and assurance of technical competence across the sector will allow the engineering and construction workforce to move seamlessly within the industry and mobilise across the energy sectors.
The Connected Competence Delivery Group
The Delivery Group is accountable to the Connected Competence Council and functions as the project execution team responsible for delivering the ambitions of the Connected Competence initiative by championing and strengthening links across industry. The Delivery Group members embark on sharing good practice and lessons learned as well as ensuring the Code of Practice is maintained throughout their organisation from senior management to operational levels.
