The Queensland Government’s The Right Skills Strategy 2025–2028 is focused on delivering flexible and innovative training solutions so that Queenslanders have the right skills. It prioritises both traditional industries and emerging sectors. The strategy aims to strengthen the state's TAFE and training system while increasing investment over the next 4 years to build a skilled workforce.
As Queensland's economy evolves, the demand for skilled workers is growing in sectors such as healthcare, construction, and education. The strategy places significant emphasis on developing both foundational skills and higher-level capabilities to meet future needs.
