In an effort to address the shortage of electircians and encourage more females to enter the electrical industry, Diane Johnson, the Skills Ambassador ....of the ECA (Electrical Contractors Association) helped to set up the 'Wired For Success' scheme to encourage more women into the electrical sector.
Last year (2011) saw record numbers of unemployment amongst women. Unfortunately many of these women were on benefits due to lack of re-training opportunities following redundancy.
