About
Department of Communities awarded a contract to CSWA (Community Services, Health & Education Training Council inc.) for the development of an implementation‑focused workforce action plan that translated the findings of the Stage 1 workforce scoping report (completed by Community Skills WA) to support delivery of Thriving Kids in Western Australia.
The consultant role required identification of workforce priorities able to commence within the first 18 months, establishment of longer-term workforce and strategic priorities across a five‑year horizon, and identification of opportunities where vocational education, professional development and higher education could better support workforce capability.
The scope specifically included the identified priority focus areas of Aboriginal community-controlled delivery and peer workforce delivery and aimed to position Western Australia to respond proactively while national policy and Vocational Education and Training (VET) qualification reform continued.
Contracts converting scoping reports into implementation plans are commonly awarded to sector peak bodies or training councils with demonstrated VET and workforce development expertise; the explicit focus on Aboriginal community-controlled and peer workforce delivery signals policy emphasis on culturally appropriate and lived‑experience workforce models, while the 18‑month and five‑year timeframes reflect blended short-term action and longer-term alignment with VET reform.
