Background
Skills Insight was created by Skills Impact, with the support of a broad range of industry stakeholders. Skills Impact held a Skills Service Organisation contract with the Commonwealth Government from 2016-2022. A submission to move into the role of a Jobs and Skills Council, as Skills Insight, received over 200 letters of industry support as well as the support of Skills Impact’s Members, the National Farmers’ Federation and ForestWorks.
Built on the base of Skills Impact’s people and values, our drive to improve industry skills and training delivery is the same. Our scope has increased and we are excited to be able to empower industry and all stakeholders to have a say in all stages of the system, from the development of national skills standards, through to training delivery and assessment.
