I got a alt that currently can fly noctis with t2 tractos aswell as transport ships, looking to go further into industry with it aswell. However it does not have any support skills to speak of what so ever, so i need some ideas what support skills are good to train for a industrial oriented character.

Nav skills are always good, help you get your transports places quicker. Also all of the fitting skills. Helps to max out your fits. I would also recommend trade skills and leadership skills, that way you can sell your main's stuff well, and you can be used as an off-grid booster. Refining skills are also pretty important. Last but not least, I recommend some combat skills. It's always good to grind some standing to reduce fees in whatever station you set up in.

Meh, you can always just fleet with your main, and share rewards of the missions to improve standings.

If you are being used as an OGB, you'll be fleeted anyway, you can thus easily raise your OGB's standings without the combat skills.

I recommend combat skills simply so you can have your alt jump into a rifter/hurricane to kill thieves without risk to your main.
