5-year National Skills Agreement with States and Territories

The Australian Government has committed to work with States and Territories to develop a new 5-year National Skills Agreement (NSA) to support a VET sector that assists Australians to obtain the skills they need to participate and prosper in the economy. The NSA will be guided by a vision and principles agreed by Skills Ministers and endorsed by National Cabinet. A key priority is to ensure that priority groups, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, have access to the education, training and support needed to obtain well-paid secure jobs.
