Strategic priority #2: Grow a skilled, adaptable and diverse workforce
Why it’s important
Developing the education and skills base of our workers provides robust local career paths, helping our employers develop and maintain a stable workforce and enabling young people and families to nurture a solid future in their own region. This, in turn, helps other local industries, such as the retail and services sectors, to grow and create more jobs.
How we’ll do it
-
Lead Regional Jobs Committees in Bundaberg and Fraser Coast, to support regional workforce priorities.
-
Lead and coordinate efforts across business, industry, the community and government to support workforce priorities across the region.
-
Support school-to-work transitions, coordinating with business, industry, the community and government to build a future pipeline of skilled and adaptable workers.
