Elements of sound assessment processes include: institutions to sustain feedback from employers and trainees; mechanisms to track labour market outcomes of training and systems of accountability that use this information; and, quantitative and qualitative labour market information and its dissemination to all stakeholders.

The paper provides an evaluation of the Skills Formation Strategies (SFS) model in Queensland, Australia, examining its strengths and challenges, and discusses ways in which the model can be improved upon and disseminated. It concludes with critical success factors for policy makers. The review is followed by a commentary piece on Queensland’s SFS, approaching them within the broader Australian skills policy context. It provides contextual information on skills in Australia and sets out Skills Formation Strategies as an alternative approach to skills, discussing the factors leading to its establishment within a fast changing labour market.
