Workforce Planning and Training Specialists
Workforce planning and training specialists will work with you and your staff to review staff skills, plan for your business future and identify training opportunities for your employees.
What is a workforce planning and training specialist?
The Skills for Growth program offers independent skills advice at no cost to your business. The advice comes from a workforce planning and training specialist working with you on a dedicated, one-to-one basis. They’ll help you find the right solution to deliver the skills that can boost your business.
Is the program free?
The program is free of charge to eligible small or medium businesses.
The cost of any training will then be a matter for the business in accordance with its usual training policies. In many cases this cost may be substantially subsidised by the Victorian Government through the Victorian Training Guarantee.

- undertake a strategic business diagnostic assessment
- identify your business goals and objectives
- assess the skills needs of your business and your employees
