World Skills Australia

About WorldSkills

WorldSkills Australia’s purpose is to identify, demonstrate, promote and grow the excellence of Australia’s skills development.

Our skills-based competitions operate at regional, national and international levels, and are aligned to the Australian Qualifications Framework. Our National Championship is Australia’s biggest vocational education and excellence competition.

Future possibilities

Successful competitors have the opportunity to progress to a number of career-boosting pathways. In addition to potentially competing for Gold, Silver and Bronze medals in their chosen skill nationally, and even internationally as members of the Skillaroos – the WorldSkills Australia International Team – there are leadership programs and scholarships to enable young people to become the very best versions of themselves.
