At this year's IPSERA, one of the world's leading conferences in purchasing and supply management, the EXPERTISE team presented and discussed two working papers with buyers and academics in Rotterdam
  • Ageing workforce and life-long learning in procurement: Challenges and opportunities for teaching Silver Workers to prepare for Industry 4.0
  • Unlocking Silver Expertise: Redefining Workforce Training Development in Purchasing for Industry 4.0

The team presented research findings from a European survey on the extent to which the skills and teaching and learning preferences of buyers aged over 50 and under 50 differ.

Further research results, in particular the skills measurement platform and associated learning materials, will be available shortly.
