The 2018 World Congress was organized by TAFE Directors Australia with the support of the Victorian TAFE Association and students and faculty of Melbourne's TAFEs. The three-day World Congress was one of Australia's largest gatherings of education and skills leaders, with almost 140 speakers and 44 concurrent sessions, under the theme of Preparing for the Skills Future, Now. Speakers and presenters explored the changing nature of work with particular focus on the impact of advances in technologies and automation on [professional and technical education and training] PTET. The World Congress focussed on solutions to these challenges and provided an opportunity for international delegates to look at their own PTET systems from the outside and compare their readiness to that of other countries.
