Working with native Australian plants requires unique skills across the supply chain. As the industry expands, it is important that these skills are captured in national skills standards.

The three skill sets and one unit developed as part of this project will soon be published on the national training register, pending the publication of the Respect for Country Job Skills Project, which has involved updates to related skills standards.

These new skill sets and unit are designed to equip learners with skills to prepare Australian bush and native food products for sale, prepare to set up a food production business in the sector and to source and harvest bush and native food.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed to this project.
