The Manufacturing Industry Skills Alliance (Manufacturing Alliance) is the Jobs and Skills Council (JSC) for the manufacturing industry. It is an industry owned and industry led organisation supporting the development of skilled workforces that enable modern manufacturing and associated industries to succeed. We work with stakeholders across Australia including employers, unions, educators, learners and governments to build a skilled workforce for now and for the future. Jobs and Skills Councils (JSCs) have been established by the Australian government to bring industry representatives together, with balanced representation from unions and employers in a tripartite approach. They will identify and deliver the workforce skills that are needed for a strong, competitive and sustainable economy. Manufacturing Industry Skills Alliance is a Jobs and Skills Council funded by the Australian Government Department of Employment and Workplace Relations.
