The need to develop a training culture through effective marketing analyses and responses is emphasised in 'A bridge to the future: Australia's national strategy for vocational education and training 1998-2003' (indexed at TD/LMR 85.683). The Australian National Training Authority (ANTA) initiated a project to develop a national marketing strategy on skills acquisition and lifelong learning with the aims of: (a) motivating the Australian community and enterprises to acquire skills and take part in lifelong learning; and (b) creating a framework of effective marketing of skills acquisition and lifelong learning products and services. Extensive national market research into the attitudes and values of Australian enterprises and individuals towards developing skills and participating in lifelong learning was undertaken to inform the development of the marketing strategy. Surveys of the supply and demand side of training were undertaken with employers, the general community and training providers. A series of reports contain the findings of this market research program. This research report summarises the results of a survey of organisations providing training products and services on their attitudes, perceptions, experiences and marketing practices.
The research reports from the market research phase of the national marketing strategy project are indexed from TD/TNC 69.662 to TD/TNC 69.666. The final report, 'A national marketing strategy for VET: meeting client needs', is indexed at TD/ANTA 65.03. Show less

Bridging pathways: the national strategy for increasing opportunities for people with a disability in vocational education and training from 2000 to 2005

The national strategy for people with a disability in vocational education and training (VET) aims to create a VET ... Show more
The national strategy for people with a disability in vocational education and training (VET) aims to create a VET system that employs leading best practice in achieving equitable outcomes for people with a disability in Australia. This achievement will be built on partnerships involving those with disabilities, training providers, industry, and policy makers and planners. The strategy’s four key aims are to increase access to VET for people with a disability, to improve successful participation and attainment, to achieve outcomes in employment and lifelong learning to enable people with a disability to make a greater contribution to the economic and social life of the community, and to create an accountable system that ensures equitable outcomes for those with a disability. This document outlines the current context for people with a disability in Australia and highlights the challenges for VET. It then describes the four goals of the strategy, the current situation and the action required to achieve the objectives within each goal. The appendices contain a glossary of terms and acronyms, calculations of the current situation and estimates of opportunity costs.
A companion volume, ‘Bridging pathways: blueprint for implementation from 2000 until 2005’ is indexed at TD/TNC 63.291. Show less

In order to equip Australians for the world of work and increase investment in training, the Australian National Training Authority (ANTA) hopes to engage industry more effectively in developing a highly skilled workforce. This paper clarifies the main messages that are relevant to companies, using the best mix of Australian and overseas research. Its focus is on the return on investment to enterprises, and does not cover the benefits of training to the nation or to individuals. The four key messages are: skills and training lead to improved performance and productivity; training improves staff retention and attracts skilled workers; skills and training produce the best results when part of an overall business strategy; any company can analyse the returns on training investment.

'Shaping our future: Australia's national strategy for vocational education and training 2004-2010' (indexed at TD/LMR 85.685) is the Australian government and industry's collective strategy to ensure: 'industry will have a highly skilled workforce to support strong performance in the global economy; employers and individuals will be at the centre of VET; communities and regions will be strengthened economically and socially through learning and employment; and that Indigenous Australians will have skills for viable jobs and their learning culture will be shared'. As part of the process in developing this strategy, the Australian National Training Authority (ANTA) commissioned the National Centre for Vocational Education Research (NCVER) to undertake a series of meta-analyses of research on 12 different vocational education and training (VET) topics. This report is the comprehensive bibliography referencing the sources of information used in the creation of all 12 meta-analyses, with almost 300 pieces of national and international research listed.
The 12 meta-analyses from this strategy are indexed from TD/ANTA 80.06 to TD/ANTA 80.17 Show less

This document sets out the revised workplan for carrying out improvements to training packages following the high level review. The review looked at how training packages could be improved to better meet skill needs and support teaching and learning. The workplan outlines priorities for action up until 30 June 2005, when ANTA's [Australian National Training Authority's] responsibilities are transferred over to the Australian Government Department of Education, Science and Training (DEST). These priority areas include employability skills, development and review processes, guidelines for VET [vocational education and training] qualifications, and cross-industry qualifications. The workplan covers three years, so after 30 June 2005 the responsibility for implementing the workplan will rest with DEST.
