Just in case we need to add a WYSIWYG block to every page. We can hide this in the meantime.

As we enter 2022, COVID-19 continues to exacerbate existing critical labour and skills shortages that were already affecting businesses in 2021. Consequent supply chain disruptions and continued uncertainty are severely hampering industry and the economy, with major skill shortages predicted to worsen over the coming years in Australia.

In this, the Ai Group Centre for Education & Training's first webinar for 2022, Megan Lilly, Executive Director of the Centre, questioned three Australian business leaders:

  • What do they see as Australia’s biggest skill challenges for 2022?
  • What will they be doing to address their own challenges? and
  • What do they believe requires both urgent and longer-term action by those in the skill eco-system: government, education and training providers, industry and individuals?

Our guests included:

Cathy Riach, Enterprise Resourcing Lead, BAE Systems Australia

Alison Newman, General Manager – People and Culture, Hyne Timber

Dr Tony Scoleri, Chief Executive Officer, AICRAFT
