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.

Exhibited Animal Care & Marine Wildlife Skills Standards

As a result of industry input, the skills required to care for some of the world’s most rare and vulnerable animals have been described in draft units, skill sets, and qualifications.

The final drafts are now undergoing an edit and equity and independent quality assurance process. Part of this process involves the Animal Care and Management IRC providing review and support for the final documents.

The IRC has identified the need to consult on the 240 mandated work placement hours of working with animals related to the Certificate III in Wildlife and Exhibited Animal Care. The draft qualification and related units will become available for broad stakeholder feedback again later in October.

Skills Impact acknowledges that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples have been living in and caring for Australia for tens of thousands of years, and this is respected in line with Skills Impact values. We recognise the challenges involved for people who are not related to Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islanders to understand the importance of their connection to Country. Skills Impact seeks and relies on guidance from Indigenous people in our work.
