Draft Core Skills List Consultation - Job and Skills Australia

Jobs and Skills Australia (JSA) has announced the release of a draft Core Skills Occupation List (CSOL) for consultation purposes.

The draft list is categorised into three groups of occupations:

  • skilled occupations the JSA Migration Model is confident should be on the CSOL—stakeholders are able to provide feedback on these occupations.
  • skilled occupations the JSA Migration Model suggests should be targeted for stakeholder feedback—for these occupations we are particularly interested in labour market surveys and independent research, business recruitment experiences, and the views of Australian and migrant workers and jobseekers.
  • skilled occupations the JSA Migration Model suggests should not be on the CSOL—stakeholders are able to provide feedback on these occupations.

To assist members and their clients, the MIA has prepared a Guide to Writing Submissions for this consultation.  Members are free to reproduce this guide providing it remains attributed to the MIA, to forward it to clients and contacts, and to post to appropriate social media sites.
