Abstract
An experiment between a major machine tool manufacturer, which has spare manufacturing capacity, and Coventry City Council, which has too many unemployed youngsters on its hands, is being launched. When completed, hopefully in 1980, a 600‐place training centre will occupy 86,000 square feet of production in six bays. The first trainees will start this summer, and the bays — part of Alfred Herbert's Edgwick site — will be taken over as soon as they are cleared. A number of the machines to be used in the centre will be surplus to the company's requirements, and some of the instructors will be men who had gained their skills at Herberts. Most of the money for the scheme will come from the Manpower Services Commission, and the agreement initially will be for five years. It will provide for training and production facilities for young people, adults and schoolchildren.
