Skills Alliance
A Voice for Industry
Skills Alliance is the key advisory mechanism to the Department of Education, Training & the Arts on the skilling needs of the Health & Community Services Industries in Queensland.
Skills Alliance offers industry stakeholders an ongoing opportunity to influence the training agenda of the Queensland Government.
The Need for a Skilled & Sustainable Workforce
