dc.description.abstractThis research was undertaken to study the problems of acquiring adequate technical skills and the desirable characteristics for producing mechanical drawing in the automotive parts industry in Thailand. The sample group for the study, which numbered 117 persons, consisted of design engineers and owners or managers from the automotive parts manufacturing sector. A mix of quantitative and qualitative method was applied in the study. A questionnaire and an interview were applied as tools. The results have revealed that the design engineers and the owners or managers assigned a relatively high importance to problems of technical skills and qualifications. It was found that, overall, there are several high-level problems with the desirable characteristics required for mechanical drawing. The technical skills level required for the subject matter indicates there are issues to deal with, at a medium level. The conclusion is that by improving training, the workersÕ technical skills and desirable characteristics would be increased to better match industry demand. © WIETE 2021.
