Industry bodies work with government on issues relating to vocational education and training both at state and national levels.

Industry Training Advisory Bodies in Victoria

To ensure there is strong industry leadership of the training system, the Victorian Government funds a network of industry bodies which are experts on training needs and delivery in their particular industries.

The key roles of the 16 Industry Training Advisory Bodies (ITABs) are to:
  • provide authoritative, independent information on training needs and critical skill shortages through industry intelligence gathering and networking
  • promote skills development and take-up of training by enterprises in their industries
  • assist enterprises to understand and use the skills system to get the best outcome for their business and staff
  • contribute to the development and improvement of training products
  • work collaboratively with Industry Skills Councils at the national level.
