In this session, People Director Lou Bendall, Head of Competence and Training Natalie Carroll, and Next Generation Programme Manager Rebecca Turner will explore members’ key workforce priorities and how IMCA is helping them attract talent and develop skills through the People and Skills Plan.

Members will also hear about the Next Generation Network programme and the first talent attraction campaign, launching in January, and how they can help.

A key focus will be the digitalisation of the IMCA Competence Management Scheme, making it easier to demonstrate and verify competence, support recruitment and deployment decisions, and improve the transferability of skills. The session will also introduce Phase 1 of the digital logbooks pilot, covering diving and dynamic positioning roles, and invite two more member companies to help shape it.

Diving CPD programmes will migrate to IMCA Skills, IMCA's central learning platform, in January 2027, making it easier to record, share and verify learning progress.

Finally, the session will introduce the five new C&T Committee members, highlight the Committee's increased regional representation, and outline the move of Training into its own Special Interest Group from January 2027.
