Upskilling of Australia needed
There is an ongoing need for RTO’s to deliver a quality service to meet the scale of the challenge confronting Australia. The workforce participation rate will need to rise from 65% to 69% by 2025 and the skills of the workforce must rise to accommodate changes in the economy.
