Supporting future-focused, fit-for-purpose training product

At the inaugural 2014 meeting, the COAG Industry and Skills Council (CISC) decided that ongoing reform was necessary to ensure that Australia's training system effectively supports the current and future skills needs of businesses across all sectors of the Australian economy. They also agreed on six key objectives for reform of the vocational education and training (VET) system. Since Ministers agreed to implement these reform objectives, IBSA Manufacturing has worked with its Industry Reference Committees (IRCs) to coordinate a proactive response to these imperatives. IBSA Manufacturing has implemented a range of integrated initiatives to respond to both CISC reforms and ministerial priorities across manufacturing-related training packages. This report sets out the progress of the Manufacturing sector IRCs in supporting VET system reform to date.
