Fighting the skills gap is increasingly at the forefront of our activities, as retail and industry struggle to adapt to the new realities in packaging technology while the workforce has to be kept up-to-date, motivated and inspired in their career development. The NVC Survey Trends in Learning and Development in Packaging addresses the key issues. The survey opened on 9 April and closed on 1 June 2024. Today we will share the results and discuss its implications for the future together.
