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.

What are the priority skills in your industry sector?

Information about industry skills gaps in national training packages, emerging markets and changing work methods is submitted to the Australian Industry and Skills Committee (AISC) every year in April.

The information is documented in a IRC Skills Forecast, the drafts of which will be available for feedback in February.

Through our work with the Industry Reference Committees and engaging with many of you, as well as carrying out desktop research, we are able to compile information, data and statistics about labour market issues and skills gaps for inclusion in these documents.

A Skills Forecast is being drafted for each industry Training Package we support. Skills Forecasts also propose a four year plan for reviewing and developing relevant units, skill sets and qualifications across the training packages.

The AISC draws on this informationand project submissions made throughout the year to update their AISC National Schedule, and to determine future Training Package Projects.

Skills Impact seeks and relies on guidance from Indigenous people in our work.
