4. Key Challenges for NZ Construction:

5. Demolishing the Wall of Work – one brick at a time !

6. Creating Flexible Learning Models
To meet the projected skills demand
new approaches are needed
Upskilling existing workers is just as important as training new workers
We needs to adopt a “whole of system” response, embedding new skills into people’s everyday tasks
New models are being explored worldwide under names such as “stackable credentials” and “badging”
An important considerations is the procurement of employment and training outcomes via major construction contracts

7. Dealing to Fragmentation
Construction has no real effective forum where we all come together
Our industry is fragmented, uncoordinated, inefficient and expensive.
20% increase in productivity by 2020?
We still fight our individual corners for a piece of the pie.
Integration
Knowledge
Diversity

8. Where's the Collaboration ?
We need to have collective vision
The whole needs to be greater than the sum of its parts.
We must all come together to discuss the important issues we face
