Proving Competence: Rethinking Skills Assessment for Today’s Workforce - A LinkedIn Live Session

In a fast-changing world of work, how can you be sure your team has the right skills - not just on paper, but in practice?

On 7th May 2025, we hosted a thought-provoking LinkedIn Live session titled Proving Competence: Rethinking Skills Assessment for Today’s Workforce, where eCom’s COO, Emma Dickson, was joined by Christine Telford, Operations Geologist and Trainer at OGICA.

With decades of experience in high-stakes environments, Christine shared how OGICA tackled the challenge of assessing workforce competence in well planning and execution - and the digital-first approach that helped them get there.

They explored how organisations can assess real-world skills, not just knowledge - and why doing so is crucial to workforce capability and confidence.
