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.

Work Begins on New Australian Native and Bush Foods Project

New job roles and skills needs are emerging as interest in Australian native and bush foods increases. With new businesses being launched regularly, and plenty of room for expansion, it is important that the skills needs of this sector are supported by national skills standards.

Expertise is required for harvesting and processing wild food, exporting products according to strict regulations, and working alongside Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities with awareness and respect.

Do you have experience working with native and/or bush food in Australia? Your input into this project is welcome to help define the skills standards for your industry.

Skills Impact Ltd is a not-for-profit organisation with a charitable purpose of Advancing Education. Skills Impact acknowledges the previous support of the Commonwealth which assisted in establishing this website.

Skills Impact acknowledges that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples have been living in and caring for Australia for tens of thousands of years, and this is respected in line with Skills Impact values. We recognise the challenges involved for people who are not related to Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islanders to understand the importance of their connection to Country. Skills Impact seeks and relies on guidance from Indigenous people in our work.
