Interview with Kaye Bowman on 'Workforce skills development and engagement in training through skill sets'

By Kaye Bowman Multimedia 20 November 2012

Description

In this interview, Steve Davis talks with co-author Kaye Bowman about the report ‘Workforce skills development and engagement in training through skill sets’. Skill sets are a grouping of one or more competencies below the level of a full qualification that meet a client skills need, such as a licensing or compliance requirement or specific knowledge of an emerging area. A point of debate is the role that skills sets play compared to full qualifications which are seen as the foundation of the VET system. To throw some light on this issue the authors undertook a case study of Agrifood students, comparing students enrolled in Rural Production Studies skill sets with those enrolled in the Diploma of Agriculture.
