The WA Workforce Strategy 2026-2030 (the Strategy) is the State Government's coordinated plan to work with industry and the training sector to build the skilled workforce needed for Western Australia's diversifying economy.
The Strategy supports Western Australia's future workforce needs across priority industries including housing, infrastructure, clean energy, defence, advanced manufacturing, care, tourism and hospitality. It focuses on increasing workforce participation, expanding training opportunities, supporting apprenticeships and traineeships, and strengthening partnerships between industry, government and training providers.
Jobs and Skills WA plays an important role in supporting the Strategy's objectives by helping Western Australians access training, workforce development initiatives and pathways into employment.
