    Scope & contentWe want the offshore wind sector to be the number one choice for school-leavers, apprentices, STEM graduates and people moving out of old industries. To attract the best people into our industry as we grow, we know we need to extend our pool of talent.

    Unfortunately, as with many STEM sectors, we struggle to attract women and people from BAME backgrounds into our industry. The industry is determined to change that. The Offshore Wind Industry Council is committed to increasing diversity, inclusion and equality within our workforce and across the wider supply chain.

    This excellent guide will help companies as they engage and nurture the next generation of offshore wind workers, and help that workforce to achieve their full potential.
