WorldSkills UK has announced it will be partnering with the Welsh Government and Inspiring Skills Excellence to host the WorldSkills UK National Finals 2025 in Wales for the first time ever.
Wales will be gearing up to welcome the UK’s finest talent next November on the back of an incredibly successful final in Lyon this September, where two Welsh competitors brought home awards. Ruben Duggen bagged a silver in plumbing, while Ruby Pile was voted Best in Nation for her professionalism in restaurant services.
During the national finals, young people from across the UK will be tested in skills as diverse as aircraft maintenance, 3D digital game art, welding and health and social care, cooking and electrical installation. Those who excel may be considered to represent the UK at future international WorldSkills competitions.
The WorldSkills UK competitions are an integral part of the post-16 education and training calendar and attract over 6,000 registrations from across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland annually. They provide education institutions and employers with an opportunity to benchmark the abilities of their students and apprentices against international standards.
