I continue to support both industry and individuals in developing skills for productive workplaces

Working with ISACNT, I continue to support both industry and individuals in developing skills for productive workplaces. Having had an extensive background in the hotel industry covering operations, human resources, finance, sales and marketing, I am well suited to the industry area I currently look after: creative and cultural groups.

My role has provided insight into the areas of:

  • Government policy, funding and priorities
  • National and regional agendas for workforce planning strategy
  • VET workforce challenges
  • Challenges of language, literacy and numeracy as applicable to workforces nationally
  • VET product development as influenced by both Government policy and Industry needs
  • Community and stakeholder engagement

If you are an individual, business or industry group in the Northern Territory and have questions or comments on the topics above, I would like to hear from you.

Contact me to arrange a meeting.

So what is BIG data and why should we care about the conversation?

It is widely reported that today’s students will need more than vocational skills to be successful; they will need to have the capacity to embrace and use new technology, interpret information for planning and problem solving and apply creativity to become innovators and entrepreneurs.

Today’s workplace and employer expectations have exposed a challenge in skill supply, and there’s an understanding that the root of the problem is a lack of foundation skills.
