COVID-19 – AISC Response
The AISC is committed to ensuring that our national training system can rapidly respond to areas of critical workforce and skill needs arising as a result of the impact of COVID-19.
From April to December 2020, the AISC established an Emergency Response Sub-Committee (the sub-committee) at the request of Skills Ministers. This sub-committee met regularly to consider the impact of the pandemic on training needs, and also commissioned a number of new skill sets to better support rapid upskilling and reskilling of displaced workers.
Although the sub-committee is no longer meeting, the AISC will continue to explore opportunities to support businesses to meet urgent and unmet skills needs during the COVID-19 economic recovery period.
