REVIEW OF SKILLS, TRAINING AND WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT

On Thursday 21 May 2020, Premier Mark McGowan and the Minister for Education and
Training Sue Ellery jointly announced the establishment of an urgent review of
skills, training and workforce development in response to COVID-19’s impact on
the workforce in Western Australia. A review team was established, to engage
with industry and business to identify practical and responsive training
solutions for the post COVID-19 recovery period. Over the review period, the
review team met with over 238 stakeholders in 70 meetings. 

A full report from the review is now available, setting out a targeted training
and skills roadmap for Western Australia's economic recovery, and detailing 46
recommendations. A paper detailing the WA State Government's response to the
recommendations, and notes regarding implementation is also available.
