Australia's opportunity: a skills and productivity agenda

Australia faces challenges arising from lagging productivity growth, but also has significant opportunities as we move towards the second quarter of the century. Productivity is important, because it enables sustainable economic and income growth. It is also integral to maintaining and improving living standards and quality of life. Productivity gains support the ability to invest in services such as healthcare, education and infrastructure.

In this webinar, the Ai Group Centre for Education and Training’s Executive Director Dr Caroline Smith will discuss the Centre’s recently released position paper Australia’s opportunity: a skills and productivity agenda, which addresses productivity in the Australian economy with a focus on a key driver of productivity – capability development.

Dr Smith will also be joined by Ai Group member Lesley Marchioro, Executive General Manager of People and Culture, SAGE Automation and Deputy Chair of the Productivity Commission Prof. Alex Robson to discuss the topic of productivity, with a focus on the importance of quality education and training systems for the skills and adaptability of our workforce and the Commission’s Advancing Prosperity 5-year Productivity Inquiry Report.
