Event:
Employability skills framework—Invitation to attend public consultations
I am letting you know about this just in case you can still get in (the cut off date was 1st Aug)
Ithaca Group has been contracted by the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations (DEEWR) to develop a framework that will build upon existing frameworks to more clearly define the underpinning skills needed for successful participation in work. It will also provide a common language and means of measuring and addressing employability skills and any associated personal attributes, across employment and education and training settings.
