Federal Minister for Skills and Training, Brendan O’Connor, announced that Jobs and Skills Australia (JSA) had been formally established.

As part of the launch, the Government is providing $1.9 million so that JSA can get to work preparing a capacity study into Australia’s clean energy workforce to provide a better analysis of the skills needed to support the clean energy transition.

Brendan says that JSA will begin its important work providing independent advice to government on current and emerging workforce needs.

“JSA will have a tripartite approach with state and territory governments, employers, business peaks, unions and training providers to provide independent advice to government on current and emerging workforce needs,” he says.

“Australia faces one of its biggest economic challenges in decades – a lack of skilled workers across the labour market.”

The Government established JSA as a statutory body to provide independent advice on current, emerging, and future workforce, skills and training needs.

“This is on top of our investment in 180,000 fee-free TAFE and vocational education places across all States and Territories from January 2023,” Brendan explains.
