Food and Drink Technical Framework – Food and Drink Engineering Maintenance Pathway

The aim of this framework is to attract new people into the food and drink industry to fill technical roles from a wide range of backgrounds to replace those who leave or retire and to upskill the existing workforce in Wales.

Wales has a recognised shortage of skills in food and drink engineering and this shortage is at Technician level as well as at Degree level. The purpose of this framework is to provide the industry with the STEM based apprenticeships for technician level roles required to address these shortages.
