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.

Update on Food & Beverage Processing Project

In response to consumer demand and trends, the food and beverage processing industry is adopting innovations to improve traceability, control contaminants, and further automate processes.

Work is now underway to review the current food and beverage processing qualifications so that they reflect today’s work practices and job roles. With the help of industry feedback, units of competency have been grouped into common sectors, as follows:

Allergens and traceability
Baking and Production Baking
Beverages
Cheese and Dairy Processing
Confectionery and Chocolate
Eggs, Fruit, Vegetables & Nuts
Fats and Oils
Flour, Grains and Milling
Food sales
General units (equipment & maintenance, food safety, health & safety, packaging)

You are invited to provide initial feedback on the units and identify any skills gaps or areas for improvement.

Thank you to the training providers that responded to our survey to understand how the qualifications are currently being delivered. Results of this survey are also available on the project page.
