Some communities in rural and regional Australia have become known as ‘learning communities’ as they concentrate on learning to promote social cohesion, regeneration and economic development in the face of challenges, many of which are generated as the globalised knowledge economy emerges. In 2001, the Australian National Training Authority (ANTA) launched its learning communities pilot national project to encourage the development of learning communities and learn more about them. Ten rural and regional communities received funding to undertake a learning audit as the initial stage of becoming a learning community. As part of the project, each community completed an audit of their learning strategies and capacity to become a learning community. These audits consistently reveal a number of common themes that are seen as being essential for the sustainable development of learning communities. This is the story of Toowoomba, Queensland.

The Shared Technology website supports a research project into how new technology will affect the provision of training in the vocational education and training (VET) sector. The project has been funded by the Australian National Training Authority (ANTA) through the ElectroComms and EnergyUtilities Qualifications Standards Body Australia. The project aims to inform industry and VET administrators about the range of emerging technologies that are likely to be shared across the automotive, building and construction, engineering, electrical, electronics, information technology and telecommunications industries. The purpose is to make sure that enough information is received in order to plan for training in these areas to meet future skill requirements. This project uses data collected from individual interviews with industry representatives, written submissions and reports from the industries themselves.The website is designed to provide students, trainers and others with some of the data that the research is uncovering. It will be regularly updated to provide interested individuals with information on the progress of the project.
A number of documents emerging from the project are available on the website: (1) the research report from the project, 'Shared technology: a roadmap for traditional and emerging industries to 2008' (available in VOCEDplus at TD/ANTA 75.04); (2) a conference paper, 'Shifting industry borders: the demand for future skills in industries using new and shared technology', which was presented at the National Industry Skills Forum by the Chief Executive of the Australian Electrical and Electronics Manufacturers' Association, which presents an overview and elaboration of the findings of the research report (available in VOCEDplus at TD/ANTA 76.15); and (3) 'Issues paper for research into institutional pathways outcomes against technology based National Training Packages, which sets out the background for the project and is available in VOCEDplus at TD/ANTA 76.16.
