Industry Training Advice in NSW |
|
Industry Training Advisory Bodies (ITABs) are autonomous, industry-based bodies that are able to speak on behalf of their designated industry sectors on training and related matters at a state level.
The broad aim of the ITABs is to assist industry to achieve, and maintain, a workforce with the right levels and mix of skills to meet business goals.
They are funded by the NSW Government and contracted by the NSW Department of Education and Training to support critical operational areas of the NSW vocational education and training (VET ) system.
The ITABs provide the principal independent voice on skill needs, training and workforce development issues for their respective industries in NSW by:
- maintaining current and comprehensive industry knowledge
- providing advice to government on strategic policy, program development and research
- working to maximise the benefits to industry from the vocational education and training (VET) system and promoting industry participation in structured training.
