Regional Skills Networks

You can’t co-op without getting together for the occasional chat. This is where Regional Skills Networks comes in. It’s the umbrella that all the Industry Advisory Groups sit under.

So – what are the Industry Advisory Groups? Good question. These align with specific sectors – like manufacturing and health – and help connect education and industry. Each group is made up of 10–20 organisations that meet twice a year to provide vital subject matter expertise and advice.

What we're trying to achieve:

  • Better regional education and employment outcomes.
  • Stonger research partnerships.
  • Courses where students learn the skills industry need.
