Pulling together for a strong future, the North East maritime community find new ways to innovate.

A film made about Tyneside Maritime and Engineering Ltd (TME), a non-profit organisation set up to work in partnership with local companies, local authorities and trade unions to organise training of the highest calibre and create a world-class maritime and engineering workforce on Tyneside. The film describes some of the training opportunities that are now available, and how prospective companies could become involved in providing apprenticeships to students of TME.

Educating the North East

Schools and colleges make the most of the fresh opportunities the new millennium brings.

For generations schools in the North East have prepared young people for careers in heavy industry, coal mining or the merchant navy. But with a change in the employment landscape towards the end of the 20th century educators have had to innovate to find new ways to prepare students for unpredictable futures and broader horizons.
