The purpose of this survey is to collect industry feedback and comment on the draft Automation Skills Case for Change prepared by Skills Impact. The draft Case for Change can be downloaded here.

The draft Case for Change proposes training package developments and modifications that will support the development of automation skills across multiple industries.

Feedback from Industry Reference Committees (IRCs) and broader industry and VET system stakeholders is vital for ensuring that the final Case for Change reflects industry skill needs.

Recommendations in the draft Case for Change refer to units of competency from many industry training packages. Information on training package components, including units of competency, can be found on training.gov.au, the national register of VET products.
