1. The problem Employers suffer ‘job lag’ Job lag is a condition where new employees slowly come up to speed, costing Australian Businesses an estimated $37,000 per employee* in visible and hidden costs. The ability to compete – perhaps even to survive – depends on finding people who are productive from day one.

1. The problem Communities suffer stagnation Unemployment has a negative impact on local economies. Over 720,000 people are currently unemployed in Australia*. Research shows 89% of these people are actively looking for work** but face a barrier in the form of skills, training and experience. *ABS May 2014 Statistics **ABS research 2011
...IS A PROBLEM FOR OUR ECONOMY.
