Many countries are now emerging as new hubs for international manufacturing due to the increasing costs in traditional outsourcing locations. The success of this transition will rely heavily on the establishment and maintenance of a reliable manufacturing infrastructure through an integrated systems approach.
Workforce Development for Global Manufacturing and Technology Transfer: An Integrated Systems Approach focuses on work-integrated education, training, and learning. It offers practical case studies from the manufacturing and technology sector and advocates for the integration of people, technology, and processes to develop a critical workforce that aligns with national priorities. The book presents practical and modern strategies that nations, cities, and communities can adopt to develop and sustain manufacturing for sustainable industrialization.
While this book primarily focuses on manufacturing workforce development, it is relevant to manufacturers worldwide and applies to a global audience by covering topics such as project management, product development, technology justification, and various modes of technology transfer.
