Media reps,
Industry about to give up? Maybe our last chance as we collapse on our knees. Good story here? Is it true we haven’t graduated an ATPL licence since 1 Sep ’14. Excellent for overseas pilots on 457 visas. Our schools are slowly melting away and the Asia boom is passing us by ……… why?
Urgent reminder from TLSIC – due 16 Oct ‘15
Note to media. Late notice apology. For those struggling with unresolved CASA issues; maybe send your concerns also to TLSIC. CASA and TLSIC must be aligned for many reasons; RTO approval and visas for overseas students to name a few. So read on:
The Transport and Logistics Industry Skills Council Ltd (TLISC) is one of eleven Industry Skills Councils funded by the Government through the Department of Industry. TLISC is chartered with driving the skills and workforce development agenda across the entire transport and logistics industry which encompasses activities in road transport, warehousing, rail, aviation, maritime, logistics and ports.
Call for submissions: Aviation Workforce Skills Study. TLISC has been contracted by the Commonwealth Department of Infrastructure and Regional Development to undertake a study into the state of the aviation workforce in Australia. The study will identify the industry’s workforce and skill need, as well as the actions that can be taken by industry to meet those needs.
The Aviation Workforce Skills Study will build on the methodology used to develop TLISC’s annual Environmental Scan (E-Scan). It will draw on the extensive data collected by various government agencies on the aviation industry, as well on other publicly-available data and on TLISC’s own research. Stakeholder consultations will be an integral part of the process.
TLISC is calling for submissions on workforce and training issues affecting the Aviation industry. In particular, we are keen to hear industry perspectives on: areas currently experiencing skills shortages; emerging skills and industry’s capacity to meet demand; factors affecting labour supply; comments on the current training framework, including the quality of skills training, the impact of training costs and whether these impacts are disproportionate compared to other industries; and impact of Asia-Pacific traffic growth and opportunities for the Australian aviation industry; measures industry can implement to respond to these aviation workforce challenges, including outcomes of existing programmes.
