Helping to shape the defence industry workforce
Defence Industry Skills will collaborate with industry, unions, WA TAFE colleges, universities, government, training providers, Jobs and Skills Councils, and other stakeholders to lead the design and delivery of innovative training programs for the industry’s emerging skills needs.
In addition to developing new curriculum and higher apprenticeships, Defence Industry Skills will collaborate with schools and TEAM WA universities to exchange expertise and enhance study pathways between TAFE, schools and WA universities into defence industry roles. It will also focus on driving increased participation and completion of defence industry training qualifications and providing intensive learner supports and mentoring, including one-on-one tutoring.
Defence Industry Skills will play a pivotal role in:
- inspiring Western Australians to pursue defence industry careers;
- increasing awareness of training and career pathways for defence industry jobs; and
- promoting the benefits and opportunities of careers within the industry.
