Fast track growth with digital skills

February 8, 2022

The COVID-19 pandemic has drastically changed the skill and occupation landscape in Australia. Talent shortages created by border closures and the restriction of movement across the country have impacted the way businesses and individuals work.

As Australia recovers from the pandemic, identifying current skill needs and the gaps that exist, as well as how we address these gaps is crucial. Changing working environments and shifts to remote and flexible work have impacted how employers and employees can close skills gaps.

It is in this context that RMIT Online engaged Deloitte Access Economics to better understand the changing skill and occupation landscape in Australia and the role that employers and employees play in responding to the gaps created by the pandemic.

This research is informed by:

  • A survey of employers and a survey of employees in Australia
  • Various datasets from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) and Burning Glass Technologies
  • Consultations with a range of business leaders
