I was invited more than 1 month ago to participate in GECR workshop. Today, I had the opportunity to join this global forum and I must say that I am proud to be participating in it. Let me share a brief infor about what is GECR… and the program I attended (8.30pm – 10.00pm Malaysia Time Zone).
Engineering X ‘Engineering Skills Where They are Most Needed Programme’ is considering a follow up report to the GECR 2019. To produce a better GECR 2022 that is useful to Royal Academy of Engineering, UK (RAE) audience, they run a workshop to assess whether the GECR 2019 report contained the right kind of information that is useful for our audience. The outcome of the workshop will inform the design and scope of the GECR 2022 to ensure the Review is more useful to RAE target audience.
Hence, RAE invited me to participate in a 90-minute GECR 2019 feedback collection workshop that has been held virtually on 07 March 2022 from 12:30 – 14:00 (GMT).
As a workshop participant, I was asked to read the GECR 2019 report – the PDFs of the report, methodology and dataset here.
We were asked to at least read the following sections of the report before the meeting if we do not have time to read the entire report:
- Executive Summary
- Engineering Index 2019: 3 out of 99 countries that you are interested in.
- Country Case Studies: One of the countries that you are interested in.
- Recommendations
