***************************************************************************
     The Electrical and Mechanical Services Department (EMSD) and the Hong Kong E&M Trade Promotion Working Group are today (February 2) holding a seminar series entitled "E&M Gear Up!" at the Education & Careers Expo. Representatives of the electrical and mechanical (E&M) industry were invited to introduce to young people the latest information on training, career prospects and promotion pathways of the E&M trade.
 
     Addressing the opening ceremony, the Director of Electrical and Mechanical Services, Mr Alfred Sit, said that the rapid development of innovation and technology has diversified the scope and techniques of the work required in the E&M industry. Also, a number of major infrastructure projects will commence in the coming few years which will give rise to keen demand for E&M manpower. In light of the huge career development potential, he said there is no better time to join the E&M industry.
 
     The seminar series is part of the Electrical and Mechanical Trades Expo 2018, organised by the Hong Kong E&M Trade Promotion Working Group to provide practical information on joining the E&M industry. For this year's Expo, being held at the Education & Careers Expo 2018, 19 public and private organisations have set up exhibition booths to introduce various branches of the E&M industry, including air-conditioning, vehicles, fire services, gas, electronics, escalators, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, water supply, power supply, transportation and railways.
 
     The Expo is open daily from 10am to 7pm until February 4 at Hall 1C of the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. Admission is free.
 
     Established in 2012, the Hong Kong Electrical and Mechanical Trade Promotion Working Group is committed to promoting the sustainable development of the electrical and mechanical industry. The EMSD is a member of the Group.
