Jaguar Land Rover has announced plans to train 29,000 global staff in skills critical to supporting electrification, including engineering and servicing.
Of the 29,000 staff to be trained in the Future Skills Programme over the next three years, 10,000 are based in the UK.
The firm aims to train 11,450 technicians across the 1300 JLR franchises worldwide in a bid to close the skill gap on servicing electric cars.
In 2023, the company will hire some 1200 apprentices, with a further 3400 to follow over the next three years.
