futureNow workforce development plan

The key objective of FutureNow's industry workforce development planning is to:

Identify the skills and workfoce development priorities for Western Australia's creative and leisure industries and forsee emerging influences on workforce development and training issues.

These reports describe the environment in which the creative and leisure industries are currently operating in, in Western Australia. They set out the industry critical skills which are necessary for future sustainability and growth and establish the context in which these industries are essential not only to the existing lifestyles of the existing population, but in attracting and retaining the thousands of new workers from interstate and overseas that will be vital to Western Australia's future growth and economic prosperity.

These reports are viewed as organic documents that will be continually update, validated and improved. They will be circulated widely for stakeholder scrutiny and feedback and will be subject to continuous improvement to ensure timely quality input to the State's workforce development and training strategies.
