Indigenous Small Business Skills Development Project
On Monday I attended the third Reference Group of the project to develop competencies to support Indigenous entrepreneurs and those keen to start up a small business. The project is being funded by indigenous Business Australia and Kim McIlveen attended as their representative.
Duane Vickery, Warwick Moore and Geoff Creek are the consultants undertaking the project work. They have come up with a few new competencies to address the internal and external motivations for starting up a small business.
The most interesting thing to come out of the meeting was a paer from John Mitchell looking at the changing nature of Australia's workforce and the startling fact that more than 30% of Australians are already small/micro businesses.
Just what this means for the Skills Council auspicing this project, IBSA is a change in the fundamentals of Training Package.
