Antonio Fernández is passionate about TVET and Technology and holds large experience in the digitalization of vocational training programmes by the usage of cutting-edge AR simulation technologies. In the past 5 years, he has been actively engaged in the TVET network for the socialization of the challenges that key industries such as the metal-related sector face to find qualified labour (e.g., welders) and how the modernization of vocational education can benefit economies by attracting the new generations to manual skills trades. The global economy is experiencing a tremendous skills shortage and the traditional education system is not able to respond to such demand. Antonio holds the position of Asia Director at Seabery, the leading company in the development of Skills Training Solutions powered by Augmented Reality. Within this scope, he cooperates with government and private institutions with the purpose of modernizing skills training in order to unleash the strong potential of its economies and society.
