[QUOTE="Sharpend, post: 478474, member: 17152"] Skills shortage will only disappear when two factors change, the incentive to spend the correct time to do the correct training is improved and the quality of the training is improved. In addition to this it would be helpful if the regs weren't changed/amended quite so often as I could imagine it being quite a PITA trying to teach something that is so fluid, perhaps to the point whereby the tutor is a cheesed off as those trying to learn it? imagine being a new apprentice on a three year course, by the time you have absorbed and understood the regs as taught and you are in your final year you suddenly have a new amendment dropped on you to learn, please let my head soak in the first lot of learned info before confusing me with a second set? I would also say from experience that there isn't necessarily a skills shortage but too many money men running firms cutting the time to apply the skill too? and lets face it there are those with the skill that will always find quality work, I'm sure we have a few on here!
