Minister for Skills and Training Andrew Giles, together with Australian Skills Quality Authority (ASQA) Chief Executive Officer Saxon Rice, has launched the “Real Skills Deserve Real Recognition” campaign. The initiative aims to crack down on unscrupulous practices in the vocational education and training (VET) sector, particularly misleading marketing and unethical recruitment tactics. Official figures show that more than 43,000 qualifications in areas like early childhood education and care, disability support, and aged care have been cancelled since October 2024. At the same time, the Skills and Training Minister has confirmed that skills shortages are still ongoing in key sectors, including early childhood education, aged care, and construction.
