OUR WORK

WORKFORCE PLANNING

We address workforce challenges through strategies to identify, forecast and respond to skills needs across a range of educational pathways, including vocational education and training and higher education.

TRAINING PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

We develop training products in line with standards set by Skills Ministers to improve the quality, speed to market and responsiveness of training products.

This includes piloting emerging products and testing new approaches to meet workforce, skills, and industry needs.

We work with registered training organisations (RTOs) to ensure delivery issues are considered early in training product design. 

SUPPORTING TRAINING DELIVERY

We work with RTOs to ensure training delivery meets employer needs, career pathways are mapped and promoted, and the impact of delivery is monitored.

INDUSTRY SUPPORT
AND ADVOCACY

We act as a source of intelligence on workforce issues affecting manufacturing industries and provide advice on national training system policies.
