Careers Wales actively promote careers in the logistics industry through its Personal Learning Accounts programme which enables people over the age of 19 to upskill and reskill in priority sectors, with logistics being a priority sector. There are numerous skills initiatives beyond this available to businesses in the freight and logistics sector - these include ReAct+, the Flexible Skills Programme and apprenticeships. The Welsh Governments Automotive, Transport and Logistics apprenticeships framework is designed to develop the knowledge and skills and to provide the occupational competence for people who work within the sectors. This Framework includes foundation apprenticeships, apprenticeships and higher apprenticeships.
