Skills For Tomorrow: Collaborating for the Future: Australia-Indonesia-ASEAN Symposium 2017
Education and business leaders along with government representatives from Australia and the ASEAN region will meet in Jakarta in a month for an open discussion on enhancing institutional collaboration.
Led by the International Education Association of Australia (IEAA) and supported by TAFE Directors Australia (TDA), the two-day event, Skills for Tomorrow, Collaborating for the Future: Australia-Indonesia-ASEAN Symposium 2017, aims to foster mutual, long-term engagement between education providers from Australia and across the region.
With a dual focus on the VET and higher education, it will look at skills and labour shortages, promoting quality frameworks, VET systems and products, and supporting international mobility of skilled labour.
The higher education stream, relevant for TAFEs that offer higher education qualifications, will examine internationalisation priorities and strategies, fostering collaboration, and enhancing research collaboration.
TDA encourages TAFE institutes to consider this event, where the VET program has been specifically tailored for TAFEs and where there will be networking opportunities with Indonesian ministerial representatives, including the Ministry of Manpower, Institutions and Industry.
