There’s no doubt that the last two years have been hard for the trades industry. With lockdowns and remote working and learning enforced and later encouraged, industries that rely on practical work and teaching that simply cannot be done remotely have taken a hit.
Trades training has been particularly difficult with so much of the learning process relying on in-person teaching and practical assignments. So, the industry has had to adapt to virtual learning. This can be challenging within the trades industry, to provide e-learning that delivers the right information and shows trainees how to work without them being able to practice themselves.
