The report 'Shared technology: a roadmap for traditional and emerging industries to 2008' (indexed at TD/ANTA 75.04), published by the Australian National Training Authority in June 2003, identified the new, common technology that will be used in a number of key industries over the next five years. This document begins with a scenario using a fictional character to show how technology that exists now will affect the way we live and work in the near future. It then outlines how these technological changes affect workers, skills and training, using information from the 'Shared technology' project. It concludes with two questions for consideration: What challenges do we face in developing skills across industries that are sharing technology but using different work models? How can industry and vocational education and training agencies better collaborate so that skills keep pace with new and shared technology?
