On the education and training boards, people who would have done hard physical work for years are physically not able to continue the work for which they are qualified or have experience in. Have the training bodies done any studies on how to help people diversify their skills? I have in mind people who were used to doing the same type of work and are not academically focused. Has work been done on transitioning people from physical work to more intellectual-type roles, for want of a better term?
