Preparing the Maritime Workforce for the Twin Transition: Skill Priorities and Educational Needs |
| Abstract |
The maritime sector is confronted with substantial obstacles in its efforts to adjust to the changing requirements for digital and green skills, which are essential for the advancement of technological innovation and sustainability. In order to remain competitive and adhere to rigorous environmental regulations and technological advancements, it is imperative to address these skill disparities. The objective of this study is to assess the responses to three primary enquiries: Which maritime occupations are in the highest demand, which are the most prominent in terms of digital and green skills, and what is the minimum educational requirement for the most sought-after professions in the maritime industry. This research is based on two components: desk research and field research. The maritime-related sectors that have been investigated in this study are: (a) Shipping, (b) Ports and terminals, (c) Shipbuilding and ship repair, (d) Supply chain management and maritime logistics, and (e) Marine technology and equipment. The objective of this approach is to identify current job market deficiencies and prioritise essential green and digital skills for future educational and training programmes in the maritime sectors. |
