UK government to open 5 new Defence Technical Excellence Colleges

The UK Government has announced £182m of funding to help boost the talent pipeline for the defence industry, including the creation of five Defence Technical Excellence Colleges. These will train new and existing staff to support British businesses and learn from the experiences of warfare in Ukraine.

The aim is to make the UK a defence industry leader and follows the UK Government securing a £10bn deal to build frigates for the Norwegian navy.

The funding will support development of skills from submariners to cyber warfare.
