Connect with workforce experts
A world-class speaker on skills and workforce development will share their insights at GOTAFE’s 2024 Industry Connector Events.
Business and industry leaders will gain practical skills and insights into workplace-based training at the events.
Building on the success of last year’s events, which attracted over 200 business and industry leaders, the theme for this year’s Industry Connector Events is: Accelerating our region’s workforce potential through workplace-based training.
Nicholas Wyman, who began his career as an apprentice in Melbourne and is now an internationally renowned workplace-based training expert, will speak at the three events in Wangaratta, Shepparton and Seymour on July 30 and 31.
“Nicholas has delivered over 500 workshops and keynote presentations across the world and has worked with governments and major corporations to implement skills programs,” GOTAFE’s Executive Director Student Experience Laura Baker said.
“We’re excited to bring Nicholas to our region, directly after he is due to speak at the National Apprentice Employment Network (NAEN) Conference in Adelaide.”
Ms Baker said the events would help employers to gain practical advice and inspiration while networking with experts in the field of workplace-based training.
“Workplace-based training, such as apprenticeships and traineeships can be an intimidating space for employers to step into,” she said.
"GOTAFE is here to walk side-by-side with employers from across the region to help increase understanding of hands-on skills development and the earn as you learn/workplace-based training model."
