This research reports on how Australian employers with businesses have been affected by the pandemic and their future workforce training plans.
This report examines the extent of unaccredited training in Australia and explores why employers use it, how satisfied they are with it, and the benefits they see in using it.
This study examines employers’ views, taken from the NCVER Survey of Employer Use and Views on the VET System, on the three ways they can engage with the VET system: by having vocational qualifications as a job requirement; employing apprentices and trainees; and using nationally recognised training. In particular, the authors focus on employers’ suggestions for improvement to the VET system and, for those employers who are dissatisfied with the system, their reasons for dissatisfaction.
