Australia’s urgent lack of hydrogen skills addressed by new Swinburne micro-credentials

Swinburne University of Technology is addressing the immediate skills gaps across the burgeoning hydrogen industry through the development of a suite of 11 micro-learning modules.

Funded by the Victorian Government and announced as part of their commitment to upskilling this National Skills Week, Swinburne Edge collaborated with hydrogen industry leaders to develop the framework behind the interactive digitised learning modules that will fast-track Australia’s hydrogen adoption.

Swinburne Vice President of Innovation and Enterprise, Dr Werner van der Merwe, says the funding from the Victorian Government represents an investment in the future.  
 
“Swinburne is incredibly proud of have developed a product, supported by the Victorian Government, that immediately addresses these critical skills gaps across Australia to help achieve net-zero.”

 "We are working closely with industry to give workers the skills they need to take advantage of the clean energy transition. By bringing together Swinburne's technical and educational expertise with industry knowledge and human capital, we're helping Australian businesses create a better world."
