As part of the inaugural Jobs & Skills Month 2026, Jobs and Skills Australia hosted a webinar exploring how the National Skills Taxonomy can make skills easier to find and use across different jobs, industries and learning pathways.
The discussion explored how one trusted record for each skill can support multiple ways to find and understand it, without duplicating the skill or losing the context that shapes how it is applied.
Discover how this approach could help:
- Reveal transferable skills
- Support career mobility
- Improve workforce planning
- Inform more responsive learning pathways.
Hear from our panel:
- Megan Lilly, Deputy Commissioner, Jobs and Skills Australia
- Emma King, CEO, HumanAbility
- Jodie Trembath, CEO, Academy of the Social Sciences Australia
The inaugural Jobs & Skills Month theme, Pathways to success, recognises there is no single route through education and work. This webinar continues that conversation by exploring how making connections between skills more visible can help support the different pathways people take through learning and work.
Webinar date: 22 October 2026
