Our Role Establishing Skills Insight JSC

Skills Impact held a Skills Service Organisation (SSO) role between 2016 and 2022. In 2023 we established one of ten Job and Skills Councils (JSCs), after a submission to move into the role was backed by over 200 letters of support from a broad range of industry stakeholders. This new JSC, Skills Insight, has a broader scope to deliver outcomes that support a responsive VET system and a skilled and resilient national workforce. The industry coverage of Skills Insight is similar to our past coverage as a Skills Service Organisation.

Reminder: High Volume Production Baking Skills Standards Available for Validation

Producing pastry, cakes, biscuits and bread to stock supermarket shelves requires shared core skills, with some unique expertise required for each category of product. With continued high demand, production of these products is also becoming increasingly digitalised and automated, meaning the skills required for the work are changing.

As part of this project, the existing Certificate III in Plant Baking is proposed to be renamed the Certificate III in High Volume Baking. This updated qualification has been designed to incorporate the skills standards for all four sub-sectors (pastry, cakes, biscuits and bread) and to reflect current industry practices and terminology. The documents have been drafted in consultation with subject matter experts, with broader stakeholder feedback collected during the ‘Drafts Available’ stage in November and December 2020.

They are available for validation, to check that the updated skills standards are accurate and up to date.
