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.

Validate Draft Qualifications for Greyhound Racing Careers and Jockeys

Your feedback on two draft qualifications has been used to inform further updates to the drafts, which are now available for validation and comment.

The Certificate II in Racing Industry has been revised so that it applies to skills required across all codes, including thoroughbred, harness and greyhound. It includes skills for understanding animal behaviour and welfare, and working in a manner that is healthy and safe.

The Certificate IV in Racing (Jockey) has been reviewed to reflect the expertise required to race thoroughbred horses. Industry feedback has so far supported the removal of advanced level business skills as core units, as they do not reflect the job role and are causing barriers to delivery and completion of the qualification.

Your input is needed to check that the drafts are accurate and reflect the real skills requirements of industry.
