Welcome

Welcome to WorldSkills London 2011 – the greatest skills show, future jobs and careers event on the planet!

From 4–9 October 2011, the halls of ExCeL London and The O2 in East London, will echo to the sounds of 950 Competitors from over 50 countries/regions, each national champions in their own field, coming together to compete to be the best in the world at their chosen skill and inspiring the 150,000 visitors about their future careers and job opportunities.

From the very outset of our original bid in 2006, WorldSkills London 2011 has been developed as a true UK wide event – a partnership between the four UK nations of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales – to help transform perceptions of skills, vocational education and Apprenticeships, positively and permanently. While the Competition itself is centred at ExCeL London, the event forms part of a much wider co-ordinated skills festival running from 19 September to 10 October, designed to positively encourage and influence young people, parents, and teachers in schools, colleges and universities right across the United Kingdom to ‘Have a Go’ and to try a new skill.

Welcome from John Hayes, Minister for Further Education, Skills and Lifelong Learning

Welcome to WorldSkills London 2011 – the world’s greatest showcase for vocational excellence.

The young people who will compete in London this year are among the most inspirational of their generation; they demonstrate to young people everywhere what can be achieved through hard work, passion and purposeful pride.

I am proud to offer every participant my warmest support and congratulations.

As a Parliamentarian, I’ve long argued that governments, businesses, schools and colleges should do more to promote, celebrate and reward the practical achievement and craftsmanship that this week’s Competition showcases. As Minister for Skills, I am privileged to have the opportunity to put these values into practice.

Since coming to office, the UK Government has supported a record number of apprenticeships, broken down barriers between colleges, universities and employers, and put vocational learning and skills training at the heart of our plans to rebalance and strengthen our economy.

We’ll continue to spare no effort to ensure that people whose talents lead them down a practical path get the support they deserve. They have an immense contribution to make to national – and international – progress and prosperity.

I thank you for your dedication and support, and wish you an enjoyable and inspirational experience at WorldSkills London.

John Hayes

Minister for Further Education, Skills and Lifelong Learning.

We’ll continue to spare no effort to ensure that people whose talents lead them down a practical path get the support they deserve.

All of us involved in the organisation of WorldSkills London 2011 – our UK Government sponsor, the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills and the devolved administrations in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales; our fantastic sponsors, official suppliers and media partners, our many official partners; dozens of Skills Champions and Ambassadors; far too many colleges and training providers from across the UK to mention; our Workshop Supervisors; and the committed Boards, staff and volunteers of WorldSkills International, UK Skills and WorldSkills London 2011 – are delighted to welcome you to London and wish you all a truly enjoyable and unforgettable experience.

We believe that there is something at this event for everyone. Having been inspired by the 46 skills competitions, a wide range of Have a Go areas will offer you the opportunity to try out a new skill and get impartial information and advice on how to get on. You will find Showcase areas in which the very best of young UK talent in music, drama, dance, performance and media will be showcasing their work. In the International

Conference Centre, the WorldSkills Premiere Experience will offer a three day conference and event programme featuring some of the best of the UK and international education and skills practitioners. The Make it Happen area and sponsor stands will provide a rich variety of jobs and careers advice.

And right at the centre of the Competition is the amazing work of our 950 Competitors. It is from their hands, heads and hearts (and the millions of skilled young people like them around the world) that all our futures will be forged! Please come and celebrate their talent with us, and enjoy what really is the greatest show on earth!

From the very outset of our original bid in 2006, WorldSkills London 2011 has been developed as a true UK wide event – a partnership between the four UK nations of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales

Welcome from WorldSkills International Technical Committee

As Chair and Vice Chair of the Technical Committee and on behalf of all Technical Delegates, we are delighted to extend a heartfelt welcome to all Competitors, Experts and Workshop Supervisors.

We are proud of the preparations made by WorldSkills London 2011 to present our Member’s national champions on the world stage.

With thanks to the Members of the Skill Management Teams, Workshop Supervisors and the WorldSkills International Secretariat, many improvements have been made to the planning and preparations since the exceptional Competition in Calgary, Canada in 2009. We refer in particular to the Competition Preparation Week and professional development programme for Skill Management Teams which took place in April 2011 in London, which will ensure that this 41st WorldSkills Competition will be the most professional to date, reflecting the very best of 21st century skills.

The Technical Committee has worked hard to ensure a Competition where all Competitors will have an equally favourable opportunity to present their best work over the four days of

the Competition. We compliment all Experts on their preparation and commitment to a fair and transparent Competition. We thank especially our colleagues on the Technical Committee (listed elsewhere in this handbook), who will act as Jury Presidents and as Members of the Quality Assurance Management Council. Their outstanding support and hard work to date has been exemplary.

Finally, we wish to thank the Chief Executive of WorldSkills London 2011, Aidan Jones and his outstanding team for hosting the Competition in London. Together, let us all endeavour to make the 41st WorldSkills Competition the best Competition since the foundation of the organisation in 1950.

Welcome from Tjerk (Jack) Dusseldorp – President, WorldSkills International

WorldSkills International sincerely thanks WorldSkills London 2011 for their magnificent efforts and outstanding partnership as hosts of our 41st WorldSkills Competition, which truly promises to be the best yet. We also salute UK Skills, the Skills Funding Agency and other stakeholders and the UK Government for their tremendous support of this event. Their proactive skills training programmes and competitions across England, Northern Ireland Scotland and Wales will surely benefit from the profile and legacy of this Competition.

We are delighted that London – a truly global city – will act as host to our 58 Member countries / regions that represents approximately 70% of the world’s population. We recognise and thank WorldSkills London 2011 for accommodating our Membership growth and for preparing an event of this outstanding quality, particularly set against the background of the challenging economic times of recent years

Alongside the Competition, WorldSkills London 2011 and WorldSkills International, in conjunction with the British Government and our many stakeholders, have put together an excellent conference and event programme under the banner of the WorldSkills Premiere Experience – and we look forward to welcoming Government Ministers, Officials, other Dignitaries and leaders in Industry and Education from around the world to both experience the excitement and inspiration of the Competition itself, and also to participate in the conference and event programme and associated networking opportunities.

WorldSkills London 2011 will also see the launch of the WorldSkills Foundation as the research, advocacy and education arm of WorldSkills International. WorldSkills Foundation will work alongside WorldSkills International to bring together and mobilise people, organisations and communities who

have a common interest in skills and the belief that a highly skilled workforce underpins the strength of society.

The true stars of WorldSkills London 2011 are the Competitors – each one of them is already a Champion, having been selected from amongst their peers to represent their countries/regions on the world stage. They have trained tirelessly to prepare themselves to perform at the pinnacle of their industry. They will demonstrate to their friends, family and to the world the true excellence of their craft, and that all of us have a bright future in the hands of young people such as these.

The unsung heroes of the event are the Experts, Workshop Supervisors, Delegates, Team Leaders, volunteers and committed stakeholders from education and industry who have so freely given their time, energy and resources to train and prepare the Competitors, and run and manage the competitions that will test the skills of our young champions and ultimately determine who will attain Gold, Silver and Bronze. We thank you all.

Once again, many thanks to our Hosts, and best wishes to all Competitors, Delegates, Experts, observers, volunteers and visitors for a wonderful Competition.

Venue: The O2

Time: 18.15hrs – Access for Competitors and Team Leaders18.30hrs – Doors 19.30hrs – Ceremony begins 21.00hrs – Ceremony ends

About the Opening Ceremony

The Opening Ceremony is the official start to WorldSkills London 2011. The show will include a mix of performance and protocols, which will welcome delegates and provide a flavour of the different cultures from across the UK. The show will also include the Parade of Nations and speeches from UK Government and WorldSkills Dignitaries.

Showcasing outside The O2

There will be welcome performances outside The O2 from 17:30–19:00hrs

How to access the venue?

All delegates will need to travel to The O2 via public transport. Delegates have received a paper travel card (located in the back your accreditation pass) which should be passed through the ticket machine to exit the station at North Greenwich. It will take approximately 30 minutes to travel to The O2. Please allow enough time for travel.

From ExCeL London/Tower Gateway:

1. Take the DLR to Canning Town.

2. Change at Canning Town for the Westbound Jubilee Line.

3. Disembark the Jubilee Line at North Greenwich Station.

From central London/Canary Wharf:

1. Take the Westbound Jubilee Line.

In the event of there being significant disruption on the DLR or Jubilee Line, delegates should call the OSC on +44 (0)845 475 2011 for advice on how to seek an alternative route.

One School One Country is a component of the WorldSkills London 2011 Education Experience. It has been designed to involve primary schools in learning about the culture, skills and professions of different countries/regions.

In order to maximise the benefits of One School One Country, teams from the WorldSkills International countries/regions have been actively encouraged to participate in communicating with their host school. This has provided them with the opportunity to find out the host school, its ethos as well as gain a further insight into the culture in United Kingdom. It will also provide the means of inspiring and motivating young people in the United Kingdom who ordinarily would not have the opportunity to interact with skilled professionals from other countries/regions.

Who attends the One School One Country Welcome Day?

Primary schools will act as ‘welcome hosts’ to a Team by organising a special welcome reception at their school on (C-1) Tuesday 4 October. The One School One Country Welcome Day is for the following people only:

› Competitors

› Team Leaders

› Official Delegates

› Technical Delegates

Unfortunately WorldSkills London 2011 is unable to allow any additional attendees due to the maximum capacities of the transport booked. There will be photographs and press coverage about these visits to allow other delegates to see what happened on the day.

What to see and do within the Competition

Visitor Experience

Our visitor experience will allow visitors to be part of the world’s largest skills Competition and skills showcase when it comes to London on Wednesday to Saturday 5– 8 October 2011. The visitor experience offers our planned 150,000 visitors the chance to see 1,000 people from more than 50 countries/regions competing in the 46 skill competitions. Visitors will have the opportunity to Have a Go at the skills on offer and see an outstanding display of skills showcased at the event. Thousands of schools, colleges, teachers, trainers and lecturers, have arranged to visit the event and will benefit from a range of free teacher resources to help them get the most out of their visit. Attendance for schools, colleges and education partners is complimentary. It is relevant to anyone interested in skills and jobs, from schools and colleges to employers and job seekers.

The Competition

The core of the event is the 46 skill competitions. Everyone who takes part in competitions, whether at a local, national, or international level, can benefit from them. At the highest level, WorldSkills Competitions drive up standards, helping to redefine the meaning of ‘world-class skills’ while creating future trade, education and enterprise opportunities. Taking part in WorldSkills Competitions allows each country/region to exchange and compare international benchmarks in a wide range of skills, leading to improved standards within industry and education. Competitions inject dynamism and excitement into training activities which benefit both trainers and learners. Employers, colleges, universities and training providers can all take part and there are many benefits from increasing media exposure to improving standards and brand promotion.

Have a Go and Careers Advice

Have a Go gives a ‘bite-size’ taster of a new skill, trade or profession. Have a Go ignites people’s passion to learn and offers information, advice and guidance on future jobs and careers. WorldSkills London 2011 wants to create one million opportunities for people to Have a Go at a new skill to help inspire them at work and in their careers. Have a Go activities will take place around the UK in the workplace, at colleges, schools, community centres and shopping centres – culminating in a three-week skills festival from 19 September to 9 October. Have a Go areas will also be available throughout the event. Trade sponsors, industry bodies, employers, commercial sponsors and education and training partners are all taking part.

There are more than 50 Have a Gos within the Competition, all with prominent branding and signage – Have a Gos are located, by sector in six different areas close to each competition. They are easily recognisable. Within each of the six locations there is a dedicated Careers Advice area offering all age careers advice for all of our visitors.

Colleges and Training Providers were encouraged to apply to run a Have a Go activity, and 100 applications from around the UK were received. In addition to the activities which are running at the event, WorldSkills London 2011 has been promoting a national campaign to provide one million opportunities for people across the UK to try a new skill. Events have been taking place through the country in various colleges and institutions, with Have a Go activities also offered at the Chelsea Flower Show and British Touring Car Championships.

There are over 100 Showcases taking place at WorldSkills London 2011. These are delivered by schools, colleges, and training organisations from across all parts of the United Kingdom. Showcase gives visitors to WorldSkills London 2011 the chance to see some of the UK’s most talented young people and adults demonstrating and performing their chosen skill.

Careers advice will provide visitors with further details on entry routes into the careers they have seen and tried and will provide them with information about colleges and apprenticeships within these areas.

Make it Happen

Exhibiting in the Make it Happen area will give exhibitors the chance to promote their business to the estimated 150,000 UK and international visitors to WorldSkills London 2011 and associate their company with some of the most talented young people, trades and professions in the world. It provides a unique opportunity to demonstrate the business or organisational commitment to vocational skills, careers and future jobs and to attract the ‘best of the best’.

The Make it Happen area is located in South Halls S10 – S11. The exhibition is divided into several zones to mirror the main competition skill areas: Horticulture & Animal Care, Health Public Services & Care, Construction Planning & the Build Environment, Information Communication & Technology, Engineering and Manufacturing Technologies, Arts Media & Publishing and Campus Education & Training.

The exhibition also includes several organisations such as European Social Fund (ESF), a Global Skills Village for several Member countries / regions and a performance stage for showcasing a variety of theatrical style entertainment.

Open to all for example, employers, colleges, academies, Sector Skills Councils, trade and membership associations.

The WorldSkills Leaders Forum is an annual international event on themes of global relevance and are chosen based on input from delegates and Members. The WorldSkills Leaders Forum itself serves as an annual kick-start for the networking process, striving to exploit and develop the power of WorldSkills International’s global network to meet the needs of industry and commerce and those who train them – to the mutual benefit of all concerned. Its relevance and importance has grown and it is now an important and integral part of the annual WorldSkills calendar. For more information please visit www.worldskillsleadersforum.com

Our goal for the 2011 WorldSkills Leaders Forum (WSLF) is to bring to the stage several countries and international corporations that are making a difference in skills development. We have carefully selected a mix of developing and developed countries from all over the world for this WSLF programme. The Harvard

Graduate School of Education report entitled “Pathways to Prosperity” was the catalyst behind the theme and direction for this year’s event. Top speakers from around the world will be addressing the impact that vocational training has on economic growth as it pertains to their country or corporation.

A networking lunch will be held during the WSLF and many examples of policy and practice will be shared over the course of the day. The WorldSkills Leaders Forum is proudly supported by WorldSkills International’s Global Industry Partners in partnership with WorldSkills London 2011 Premier Sponsors.

Following presentations from key leaders in business and commerce, delegates will have their chance to participate through a ‘Question Time’ style session with an extended panel of experts, exploring the benefits of investing in skills, the role skills will play in the global economic recovery and the importance of striving for excellence as a way of motivating young people.

Global Skills Marketplace (GSM)

Friday 7 October 08.00 – 15.00hrs

The Global Skills Marketplace (GSM) will offer a series of internationally themed seminars relating to skills development and training, skills policy and practice, emerging technologies, the new global workforce and international best practices. These seminars will allow participants to learn and share best practices, ask questions and network with others. The GSM provides the opportunity for leaders from industry, government and education to gather and address global skills issues, to network and to share best practices. These best practices must be shared so benefits can be realised in regions across the world.

The WorldSkills Premiere Experience conference and events programme is held in the ICC Capital Suite at ExCeL London. For further information please visit www.worldskillspremiere.com

Work Inspiration in partnership with Business in the Community (BITC)

Wednesday 5 October

Young people, apprentices and employers will come together for the second anniversary of Work Inspiration, the campaign that transforms the quality of work experience, delivered by Business in the Community. This will be both a celebration of the impact that inspiring introductions to the world of work have on the future workforce, and a call to action for more employers to deliver more high quality placements. The day is in two parts, the Big Conversation is run in the morning and then a series of ‘How to’ seminars run in the afternoon where employers will share their best practice in relation to work placements and apprenticeships. www.workinspiration.com

Work Inspiration – The Big Conversation 08.00 – 12.30hrs

The Work Inspiration campaign aims to better prepare young people for employment and bridge the transition between the classroom and the world of work by turning work experience into Work Inspiration.

The purpose of the Big Conversation is to encourage employers, apprentices and young people to discuss work experience and employability skills – the business case, the drivers for young people, the opportunities and barriers – and how to make introductions to the workplace meaningful, relevant and inspiring. For the first time, apprentices will join CEOs and young people in a Big Conversation to share their stories of progression in the workplace and the opportunities that vocational routes offer.

Work Inspiration – ‘How to’ Seminars 13.30 – 15.30hrs

A selection of seminars by employers for employers. These seminars will address key topics and issues related to developing current and future skills and the delivery of valuable and engaging work placements for both the employer and young person. Three seminars run concurrently across two time slots so when booking please select one seminar from ‘round one’ and one from ‘round two’.

Package info

Accreditation

All delegates receive an accreditation pass as part of their welcome pack upon arrival at the hotel.

It also acts as a handy storage facility for delegate travel cards. The accreditation pass does not allow entry into the Opening Ceremony or Closing Ceremony.

If the details on an accreditation pass are found to be incorrect or a photograph is missing, the accreditation centre will be open 08.00 – 20.00hrs to support delegates.

Important: please note if delegates lose/misplace their accreditation pass, there is a £20 replacement fee payable to the accreditation team before a new pass will be issued.

Transportation

Public Transport/Travel Cards

The majority of a delegate’s travel for the duration of their stay in London will be via a public transport option. These include London Underground, Docklands Light Rail Way and London bus. This will predominately include travel between a delegate’s hotel and the Competition Site at ExCeL London.

Delegates will be issued either one single weekly travel card or two single weekly travel cards. Whether a delegate is issued one or two travel cards is dependent upon the duration of the stay. Delegates will be issued a travel card that will cover zones 1–3 only. These travel cards allow limitless travel within these zones for the period that the travel card is valid. A delegate should therefore not be required to purchase any travel ticket during their stay and will not be reimbursed if they do.

To use a travel card on the London Underground a delegate must insert the card into the machine at the gates. Upon doing so the gates should open temporarily and the ticket is returned. This allows the delegate to retrieve the ticket and proceed through. On buses or Docklands Light Railway the delegate need only show an inspector the travel card ticket if requested to do so.

Please note that travel cards are paper tickets and not the plastic “Oyster” cards that delegates may be expecting and which are also used on the London public transport system.

Please note if the travel cards are lost or damaged delegates are responsible for replacing their own travel cards (this includes purchasing and payment).

For individual travel instructions from individual hotels to the Competition Venue at ExCeL London please see the separate hotel information sheet.

Important Travel Information:

There are planned engineering works on the Transport for London network on Saturday 1st and Sunday 2nd October please consult your hotel fact sheet for details on how to travel to the Competition Site on those days.

Thanks to WorldSkills International’s Global Industry Partners

Thank you Partners!

WorldSkills London 2011 has enjoyed widespread support especially our Government sponsor, the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills and the devolved administrations in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales, the Mayor of London and individual London boroughs. In addition throughout the planning and deliver of the event we have been fortunate to have the support of organisations ranging from the British Council to Business in the Community, the Alliance of Sector Skills Councils to Unionlearn. Each and every one of our partners has made a real contribution to the success of WorldSkills London 2011. Support has ranged from working with us to organise the conference and event programme to promoting the event to Members and through networks and providing technical expertise and materials.

Through our network of partners we have been able to introduce organisations to one another and stimulate what we hope will be long term relationships which will continue to benefit the skills community beyond October 2011. An event as complex as WorldSkills London 2011 can’t happen without the practical support of many partner organisation and we would like to pay tribute and thank all those organisations who have worked with us.

We would especially like to thank the UK’s sponsoring Government Departments: Department for Business, Innovation and Skills, Department for Education and Learning – Northern Ireland, Department for Education and Lifelong Learning – Scottish Government, Department for Education and Skills – Welsh Government.

In addition we would like to acknowledge the support of: Association of Colleges, British Council, Business in the Community, European Social Fund, Greater London Authority, London Councils, London Borough Greenwich, London Borough Newham, London Work Based Learning Alliance, Mayor of London, National Apprenticeship Service, Skills Funding Agency and Young People’s Learning Agency.

In addition there are over a hundred other organisations that have worked with us and supported us: we would like to thank each and every one of them for their invaluable contribution to WorldSkills London 2011.
