The South Australian Skills Plan is currently in development.
To support its creation, Skills SA spoke with students, businesses, communities training providers and industry for feedback on the opportunities to position South Australia's skills system for the future.
South Australian Skills Plan Engagement – Taking immediate action
The feedback received during South Australian Skills Plan engagement, through written submissions, an online survey and workshops, identified a range of challenges and opportunities facing communities and industry sectors, including:
- learner wellbeing and good information about training options was critical to supporting completions
- the important role of skills in addressing shortages, and the need for greater recognition of the role of VET in skilling people for work, especially in shortage areas
- strong support for fostering more partnerships and responses that provide the flexibility to pilot new approaches and address the specific training needs of sectors and regional economies.
Immediate actions
In response to feedback, Skills SA are taking immediate action to develop solutions to skills shortages and open new opportunities to connect South Australians to training and future jobs.
These initiatives can be found in the South Australian Skills Plan engagement – taking immediate action (PDF 1.3MB) publication.
