The SPOL informs Western Australian workforce development planning and is used to determine funding priorities for training in WA. It also links to the Skilled Migration Occupation List (SMOL) and the development of the State Training Plan, which guides the funding of training programs.
At the Financial, Administrative & Professional Services Training Council we work collaboratively with industries to provide strategic advice on occupations to determine their priority status for WA.
We work within a framework of evidence, data analysis and validation to ensure that any significant impacts across the industry or the State economy that may manifest in slow growth or supply bottlenecks are reported on.
