Industry Skills Council release 2010 environmental scans

The eleven national Industry Skills Councils have released their 2010 environmental scans, which provide guidance on workforce planning and development, in particular training requirements, for industry, government and the national training system.

The scans also help inform the continuous improvement of training packages within those industry areas.

The scans included feedback from enterprises, employer and employee groups, licensing and regulatory bodies, state training authorities, the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations, and registered training organisations.

The scans include:

  • contemporary intelligence on industry skill needs, trends, barriers and implications which provides a shared understanding of what industry wants and why
  • broad analysis of current and emerging skill gaps
  • other issues impacting on workforce development that may require attention, such as specific skill shortages, skills needs, and regional requirements
  • the impact and usage of existing training packages
  • future directions and short to medium term priorities for endorsed components of training packages
  • continuous improvement that has occurred to training packages over the preceding 12 months.
