Digital skills report
New Zealand’s construction and infrastructure sectors are at a turning point. The industry is now being reshaped by digital technologies that are changing how we design, build, and maintain the built environment.
From Building Information Modelling (BIM) to artificial intelligence, simulation training, and digital twins, the skills required of tomorrow’s workforce are evolving rapidly, and the pace of change shows no signs of slowing.
This report brings together insights from a portfolio of research commissioned by ConCOVE Tūhura to explore what these changes mean for Aotearoa’s workforce. It highlights some of the key themes that were continuously highlighted in our research. It also surfaces the opportunities and challenges of embedding digital capability across training systems, qualification frameworks, and workplace practice.
