Skills Alliance

The Queensland Fitness, Sport & Recreation Skills Alliance is a not for profit industry workforce advisory organisation that leads and supports the workforce development efforts of our industry.

On behalf of the industry we develop the Industry Skills Report that has considerable influence on the state government funded training and workforce development funding for the industry.

We work closely with peak bodies, industry organisations and associations and individuals to ensure we are the voice of the industry in relation to workforce development and training issues, which includes working with Service Skills Australia and the Federal government.

A healthy industry ensures it has a trained and qualified workforce, that has up-to-date skills in adequate numbers to provide the services required.

Proper Workforce Development assists industry to attract and retain workers. In the Fitness, Sport and Recreation industry this applies to both paid employees and volunteers.
