About

The Skills Development Scotland Co.

Limited awarded a contract to The Underwater Centre (Fort William) Ltd for the Skills Development Fund for Subsea Sector.

The contract, valued at £258,069, was awarded to facilitate access to high-quality, industry-accredited commercial diver training and associated certification.

The initiative aimed to increase the availability of training courses to support oil and gas individuals affected by the downturn who wished to enter and gain employment in related and alternative sectors, and to support individuals in accessing skills and practical experience to reduce the risks of future skills shortages in the subsea and diving sector.

The output of the Fund following completion of the training was to have a clear focus on delivering employment opportunities for participants.
