Spokes
RiverTech has four focus areas (spokes) and a central theme (hub) that is evident in all parts of the curriculum. This design is similar to the spokes and hub of a wagon wheel, where the focus areas are the spokes and the essential workplace skills are at the hub. These reflect the skills that scholars will need to be future-ready and enter into Industry 5.0.
