On this week’s episode of the Defence Connect podcast, host Phil Tarrant is joined by newly appointed chief executive of the Naval Shipbuilding Institute (NSI) Ian Irving to discuss the institute and what its aims and ambitions are.
Irving discusses how the NSI will enable the development of a highly skilled national workforce to help deliver the Australian government's Naval Shipbuilding Enterprise, and how the NSI is establishing frameworks to ensure young men and women coming through the ranks are provided with the best possible education to set them up for endless job opportunities within the shipbuilding industry
