Our Role Establishing Skills Insight JSC

Skills Impact held a Skills Service Organisation (SSO) role between 2016 and 2022. In 2023 we established one of ten Job and Skills Councils (JSCs), after a submission to move into the role was backed by over 200 letters of support from a broad range of industry stakeholders. This new JSC, Skills Insight, has a broader scope to deliver outcomes that support a responsive VET system and a skilled and resilient national workforce. The industry coverage of Skills Insight is similar to our past coverage as a Skills Service Organisation.

Dept of Agriculture, Water and the Environment Want to Hear from You

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is changing the way we live and work—and the agricultural industry is no exception.

As Australia’s agriculture, fisheries and forestry industries are essential to our country’s food and fibre security, keeping our industries strong and viable is a priority.

The need for a strong partnership between industry and government is more important than ever before, and high-quality communication and collaboration is critical.

It’s time to share knowledge and ideas.To enable this the Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment has set up an engagement team specifically for the agriculture, fisheries and forestry industries.

Mark Tucker is the Senior Agriculture Engagement Officer leading the team and the pivotal, single point of contact between industry and government.

He is already working closely with industry stakeholders and peak bodies on issues surround Covid-19 to ensure industries ideas and perspectives are considered in government decision-making.
