Cross sector supply chain SKILL SETS and units of competency are now available

The Supply Chain Skill Sets and Units of Competency have been developed to support the existing supply chain workforce to quickly upskill and adapt to widespread technological change. These new Skills Sets enable the workforce to operate to world class standards in a broad range of supply chain industry sectors and environments.  The cross sector design and portable nature of these skills enables workers to move between industries, work in different parts of the supply chain or work in supply chain operations around the world.

A skilled and adaptable workforce has been identified as critical to the National Freight and Supply Chain Strategy. The strategy recognises the importance of having employees who can quickly adopt and deploy emerging technologies and practices.
