Skills Gap Analysis Stage 2 Workshop Sessions

SmartSat CRC and the Australian Space Agency are seeking to better understand the current capabilities of Australian space industry actors, and the needs for the future activities that will drive the national space industry forward. In 2020, a study was conducted to identify the present and future key skills gaps within the Australian space industry. The study identified 319 space-related skills needed to support future needs of the sector and the output is published in the Space Industry Skills Gap Analysis report (https://smartsatcrc.com/corporate-publications/).

The goals of this Skills Gap Analysis Stage #2 study are to triangulate the results of the Space Industry Skills Gap Analysis to

• Provide industry validation for the Australian Space Skills Taxonomy
• Test the skills gap findings with the lived experience of space industry and training providers, and capture more qualitative information about skills needs pressure points
• Extend the Taxonomy to map skills to space industry occupations/job roles, competencies, and skill levels
• Identify gaps in key skills for Australia’s Space Industry Capability
• Identify relevant training/education providers who have capability to provide training/education against any gaps

Your input will provide valuable data on Australia’s current space-related skills gaps and anticipated future skills requirements. The outcomes of this study will allow the SmartSat CRC and the Australian Space Agency to target appropriate areas within their respective skills development programs to meet current and future job skills needs and identify training priorities for the space industry.
