Details
The Quantum Skills Taskforce is a sector-wide coalition chaired by Professor Sheila Rowan CBE FRS, including representatives from:
- industry
- academia
- professional societies
- national labs, and
- government departments and agencies.
The taskforce has considered the current and future skills needs of the sector, and how these needs could be met. This report summarises the findings of the taskforce.
It is intended as a guide to enable the whole quantum sector to take these findings forward. This includes the business and research institutions leading work to capitalise on the potential of quantum, as well as the government bodies, learned societies and trade associations that are supporting them.
The government will now consider these recommendations, to support and inform future quantum programmes and policy development.
