Expert panel to advise on apprenticeship reforms
An expert panel has been appointed, led by Mr Jim McDowell, to advise on the steps needed to sustain and grow a stronger Australian apprenticeships system.
The panel will examine apprenticeship training arrangements, including current incentives, and suggest principles and evidence to improve outcomes for both apprentices and industry. The work of the panel will be underpinned by a study on related economic costs and benefits, including research undertaken by the National Centre for Vocational Education and Research.
The seven-member Apprenticeships for the 21st Century Panel will be chaired by Mr Jim McDowell and includes industry and union representatives and academics.
The panel will report to the government early in 2011.
