Last week, we launched the Komatsu Youth Program during National Skills Week, which ran from August 19th–23rd. Partnering with educational organisation STEM Punks, we delivered a workshop for students in years 7-9, where they got to learn about autonomous vehicles and the data and technology that drives them, testing it in real time with simulations and challenges. #Komatsu #creatingvaluetogether #youthprogram #skillsweek

It’s more important than ever we’re educating today’s youth about the different types of career opportunities available to them. As our mining and construction industries continue to embrace new technology and innovations - from autonomous dump trucks, to remote monitoring on construction sites - we are also seeing this impact our workplace and the type of roles we need to support this transition. This National Skills Week, Komatsu has announced the launch of our youth program, which will develop young talent and encourage them to engage with some of the tech skills we’re looking for in our construction and mining sectors from a young age. This week, my team officially launched the program at our Innovation Hub, where we hosted a group of local high school students, alongside one of our educational partners @STEM Punks, a leader in developing programs focused on teaching STEM skills. We’re excited to collaborate with STEM Punks to launch this program and kick off our broader youth initiative during National Skills Week. Our goal is to help build a future workforce that is well-equipped with the necessary technology and skills for career advancement.   Learn more about Komatsu’s Youth Program here - https://lnkd.in/gqEQfYYd #CreatingValueTogether #KomatsuYouthProgram #NationalSkillsWeek #CareersinSTEM #ZaraCarey #MatthewTosolini #MichaelHolmstrom
