About the Webinar

SKILLS – INDUSTRY LED EDUCATION, VET

Don’t’ miss the Future of Work – an interactive panel discussion where participants can drive and ask the questions regarding the nature of work in Australia and abroad. Working disruptors such as automation, skills, composition and structure; as well as the consequences of COVID and how this will shape macro trends and local impacts.

This webinar will take the lead from the business perspective – what are businesses looking for in their employees from a skills perspective.

Join prominent CEOs to explore the skills companies are looking for in today's ideal employees. It is a fact that there are jobs available in Australia now. In fact, without overseas immigration at this time, Australian companies must look to domestic sources of talent to help drive industry sectors. And with many industries competing for similar talents, how do employers make their jobs stand out to the best talent?

Most jobs in modern manufacturing are not on the factory floor; they come in the design and engineering phase, and then in distribution, sales, and servicing after. So, to find and fill a future job, business and people needs to adapt.
