Michael has completed and will graduate with a MSc in Net Zero Engineering from Queen's University Belfast this December.
Michael said: "I am delighted to be speaking again at the OWL Conference. This is a great opportunity to network with employers in several areas of the motor vehicle industry and for me to promote the opportunities for upskilling the industry as we continue to roll out specialist training and qualifications here at SERC.
"Although some transport decarbonisation target dates have been pushed back recently to 2035, we really need to continue preparation for the change from burning fossil fuels. Unless we are prepared here in Northern Ireland there will be a huge skills shortage, not only in the automotive industry, but across all industries, particularly plumbing and electrics."
