Priority industry qualifications

Priority industry qualifications equip students to take up jobs in skilled occupations that are in high demand across Western Australia. The Priority industry qualifications list (PIQL) is updated each year to reflect changes in the WA economy.

Where a job aligns to a priority industry qualification that is no longer in highest demand, the qualification is labelled transitional. Students enrolled in a transitional priority industry qualification in 2020 are advised that the course may be reclassified as a general industry training course in 2021. Where this occurs, any units commenced in 2021 will attract the higher course fee rate that applies to general industry training courses. The transitional qualifications are identified separately in the PIQL.

Priority industry qualifications list 2024
(v1: effective January 2024)

General industry training courses

The State Government subsidises courses for many important industry qualifications that fall outside of the priority training courses; these are called general industry training courses. This recognises the benefits training brings to students, to industry and to the State as a whole.

If you would like to study a State Government subsidised general industry training course, please look at the Choosing a training provider information on this website to find out more about courses offered at WA TAFE colleges. Some preferred private training providers also offer a range of general industry training courses to individuals who require additional assistance to access training.

Please note that specific student eligibility requirements apply.

Foundation skills courses

The State Government is committed to supporting students in developing language, literacy, numeracy and employability skills. Employability skills are the skills required for participation in the workplace such as collaboration, problem solving, self-management, digital literacy and technology skills. Around 99% of course costs are subsidised by the State Government, for over 30 foundation skills courses.

The Course in Applied Vocational Study Skills (CAVSS) and the Underpinning Skills for Industry Qualifications (USIQ) course are both delivered free of charge. The Foundation skills course list outlines all the courses that are currently eligible to receive a government subsidy, subject to available budget.

We are committed to supporting students of all ages and backgrounds to develop language, communication, literacy and numeracy skills that will help to build confidence and improve their ability to be successful in both study and employment. This support is provided through two key strategies:

There are two fee-free priority foundation skills courses – the Course in Applied Vocational Study Skills and the Course in Underpinning Skills for Industry Qualifications.

These courses do not result in a separate qualification, rather they provide support to students who need additional assistance to successfully complete their vocational qualification and develop the skills needed for the workplace.

Course in Applied Vocational Study Skills (CAVSS)

CAVSS provides additional support to build literacy and numeracy skills as part of a vocational training program.

Through Jobs and Skills WA, these courses are subsidised so that eligible students pay only a small fee. If you feel you may be eligible, please speak to your training provider for more information prior to enrolling in a vocational qualification, as not all providers are approved to deliver these courses.

As a first step, it's good to look at the skills, abilities and experience you already have — you may have more than you know! 

Skills come from all of your life, work, learning and leisure activities  –  and many of the skills that you have are exactly what employers are looking for, even skills that you may not think are work related. These are called employability skills — a set of skills that are needed in all industries and types of work — things like communication, teamwork, and problem solving.

Did you know almost half of Australia's population was born overseas, or have at least one parent born overseas? Cultural diversity is one of the things that makes WA such a great place to live and work, and people of diverse cultural backgrounds bring unique skills and abilities to our workforce.

Employers and business will value the different perspectives and experiences you offer, which can help them to understand and communicate with multicultural clients and other businesses and give better customer service.

Financial independence and less money worries

Being in the workforce means more financial independence for yourself, and less money-related stress for the whole family. Whether you want to work part time to help with bills or spending money, or get back into a full career with a nice salary, it's a great feeling to have that financial support!

Whether it's a refresher or an introduction to a new field of work, these skill sets will bridge any gaps in your knowledge without too much of a time commitment — most run for only a few weeks and are available part time, and some can be done online. All the skill sets contain units from nationally accredited and recognised vocational education and training (VET) qualifications. 

There's never been a better time to get on a pathway to employment, and we want to help you take advantage of all these opportunities! Our Job Ready Programs are short courses that combine training at a TAFE college or private training provider, with a period of industry placement where you'll gain real hands on experience in the workplace.

With 210 qualifications to choose from, there's something for everyone — from automotive to aged care, tourism and hospitality to information technology, childcare to agriculture, pastry chef to viticulture, building and construction to electrical engineering, science, veterinary nursing, web design and development... too many to list here! 

Doing an apprenticeship or a traineeship enables you to earn while you learn — you work and get paid, just like a regular employee, but you also complete a vocational education and training (VET) qualification. And they're not just for "young" people, there's no upper age limit.

Apprenticeships focus on licensed trades areas such as bricklaying, engineering, plumbing, hairdressing, mechanical, electrical etc.

Age diversity is critical to business success —each person in the workforce brings unique skills and abilities to the workplace, based on their work and life experiences. 

A great fit for certain industries

Mature age people are actually sought after in some industry areas, where emotional maturity and life experience are important "tools of the trade". One great example is the community services industry — particularly in areas such as aged care, mental health, disability support, and social work — although the industry does attract younger workers, some occupations greatly benefit from the experience that age brings.

We have a free online jobs board, with a great range of jobs available — from entry level through to higher level career opportunities — maybe your dream job is on there right now! It's completely free to use.

At job interviews
  • Don't undersell your strengths, or focus on age

  • Don't draw attention to perceived negatives, such as periods of absence from the workforce

After working in the hospitality industry for most of her life, Glenda decided — at age 54 — it was time for a career change. She participated in the Career Transition Assistance program, where she was supported to identify job opportunities and attend interviews. 

“I was ready for a change and I’m really enjoying it. It’s also opened up my eyes to other types of work that may be out there for me now” Glenda says.

Whether you're looking for a skills refresher or an introduction to a new field of work, these skill sets will bridge any gaps in your knowledge without too much of a time commitment — most run for only a few weeks and are available part time, and some can be done online.

Some of these skill sets are 100% free for everyone, and others are 100% free for eligible persons including jobseekers; and people holding a pensioner concession or Health Care Card. 

Enjoy this short video from Verushka, who made a career change into a mature age apprentice at Alcoa WA.

One of Verushka's main motivations for doing an apprenticeship was to be a role model and set a good example for her young daughter.

Browse through the five slides below, to find out more.

Staff at your TAFE college will work with you to identify and address any potential barriers. This support is free, confidential and voluntary. It's available to students who identify as living with disability, a mental health condition or a medical condition whether temporary or permanent.

Learning support plans

Learning Support Plans (LSPs) are developed by the TAFE's Accessibility and Learning Support Coordinator, who will work with you to determine the level of support you need. Your LSP may also include guidelines such as attendance requirements for classes, and timelines for assignments and class work. 

Your LSP is private and confidential, and applies only to you — it will not be disclosed to your trainers without your consent. It helps to ensure that your support needs are clearly documented and understood.

You can request a review of your LSP if, at any time, you feel further (or different) support is required; you are finding the guidelines a challenge; or an issue arises.

Reasonable adjustments

Under Australia's Disability Standards for Education, training providers are encouraged to implement measures — referred to as "reasonable adjustments" — to assist you to apply, enrol and participate in a course or training program; on the same basis as a student without disability. 

The types of reasonable adjustments available will be based on your LSP, and take into account your individual needs and abilities.

Some examples could include providing assistive technology; additional time to complete assignments and course work; a choice of assessment methods eg presentation, portfolio or project; and provision of recorded lectures.

Assistance and service animals

Your assistance/service animal is welcome on campus at all WA TAFE colleges.

If you wish to bring an assistance/service animal with you to TAFE, please speak to the student support services team to register your animal and complete some required documentation.

You will be responsible for the behaviour of your assistance/service animal at all times. 

You may need to help other students understand etiquette around your assistance/service animal; such as not touching it, or offering it food.

Every person brings skills and abilities to the workplace, based on their work and life experiences. As a person with disability, you have unique skills and abilities to offer and will be highly valued as part of an inclusive and diverse workforce.

It's your time now

This is time for you to focus on "me" — what you want to do, and what your goals are. There may be new things to consider if you'll be balancing other responsibilities, but many employers offer flexible working hours and conditions that make this easier.

Change can be very stimulating, like recharging your brain! Be confident in your skills and abilities — nobody likes to feel like they're in a rut, so getting back into work may be just the change you need. 

Jobs and Skills Centres work closely with employers, business owners and industry across WA to find employment opportunities, including apprenticeships and traineeships, and post them to the jobs board. You can use the filters to search for specific jobs, and in different locations. 

When you see a vacancy on the board that interests you, select the title to read more about the job and how to apply.

The new Disability Jobs Connect is a free online platform for people with disability to help overcome the challenges of gaining employment and connect with potential employers who recognise the unique skills and attributes they possess.  

You can create a profile showcasing your skills, attributes, values, previous experience and more. Employers can then search on this information, view candidate profiles and connect with those best aligned to their business and available role. 

Whether you're looking for a skills refresher or an introduction to a new field of work, these skill sets will bridge any gaps in your knowledge without too much of a time commitment — most run for only a few weeks and are available part time, and some can be done online. All the skill sets contain units from nationally accredited and recognised vocational education and training (VET) qualifications. 

There's never been a better time to get on a pathway to employment, and we want to help you take advantage of all these opportunities! Our Job Ready Programs are short courses that combine training at a TAFE college or private training provider, with a period of industry placement where you'll gain real hands on experience in the workplace.

With 210 qualifications to choose from, there's something for everyone — from automotive to aged care, tourism and hospitality to information technology, childcare to agriculture, pastry chef to viticulture, building and construction to electrical engineering, science, veterinary nursing, web design and development... too many to list here! 

Doing an apprenticeship or a traineeship enables you to earn while you learn — you work and get paid, just like a regular employee, but you also complete a vocational education and training (VET) qualification. 

Apprenticeships focus on licensed trades areas such as bricklaying, engineering, plumbing, hairdressing, mechanical, electrical etc.

Traineeships are generally for non-trade areas such as information technology, business, aged care and retail.

The NOW program

New Opportunities for Women (NOW) is a course that was developed specifically for Western Australian women returning to the workforce, who need to boost or refresh their employability skills and build the confidence to take those first steps into study or employment. NOW has been running successfully for many years in WA, and has helped hundreds of women of all ages and backgrounds to make a new start.

You may have more skills than you know! Skills can come from all of your life, work, learning and leisure activities. If you've previously worked in a career, but more recently have spent time balancing a household budget, multitasking childcare schedules, and maintaining a family home – these are transferrable skills that employers are looking for!

Here's just a few examples of how your life experience translates directly to employability skills.

Gender diversity is important in the workforce, and we know that women bring unique skills and abilities to a job. We also know that, traditionally, women are highly valued in some industry sectors such as aged care, healthcare, community services, nursing, retail and hospitality.

It's your time now

If you've been busy raising a family, when the kids start school you'll have more "me" time and can consider a return to work or getting into training. There may be new things to consider if you'll be balancing career and family responsibilities, but many employers offer flexible working hours and conditions that make this easier, and mums who return to the workforce often feel empowered by the benefits that working offers.

Zoe decided to enrol in a Certificate IV in Landscape Design at TAFE, which enabled her to do the course part time and balance her family responsibilities with study.

She was able to build her confidence through the training, and received excellent support from her TAFE lecturers — she says her training experience has finally made her feel like she's stepping into the person she was always supposed to be.

The tourism industry incorporates businesses that provide goods or services related to leisure and business activities away from a person's usual home or business environment — generally, related to holidays and/or travel for business or pleasure. Tourism has two main areas — domestic (travel and tourism within Australia), and international (outside of Australia), and it's a multi-billion dollar global industry.

Hospitality is the business of making people feel welcome. It's has two main areas — accommodation, and food and beverage. These are generally categorised as "front of house" — the people you see, such as the hotel concierge or the maitre'd at a restaurant, and "back of house" —  the people you generally don't see, such as the hotel's housekeeping team or the restaurant's kitchen staff. 

Tourism and hospitality happens all over the world — on land, on water, and in the air. From hot air ballooning over the Avon Valley or helicopter rides over wineries in South West WA to restaurant service on an ocean liner touring islands in the South Pacific, working the front desk at a luxury resort on the Gold Coast to guiding tours at a wildlife sanctuary in Africa, it is truly an industry that can take you anywhere and offer you experiences like no other. 

The tourism industry offers something for everyone — a range of opportunities from entry level work through to high level management roles within Australia and across the world.  If you enjoy meeting new people and trying new things, you’ll be amazed at the career choices available to you in this dynamic and exciting industry sector.

The type of job you pursue will depend on your career goals. Here's just a few things to consider.
 

Tourism also enables Aboriginal people to work on country and create unique tourism experiences through sharing its history and beauty with the world.

If you are an Aboriginal person, this could be a fantastic career path to follow. 

So what is "eco tourism"? Eco Tourism Australia defines it as "ecologically sustainable tourism with a primary focus on experiencing natural areas that fosters environmental and cultural understanding, appreciation and conservation." 

In this short video Kat, who recently completed her Diploma in Events Management at South Metropolitan TAFE, talks about what's involved in the job and what she learned in her training. She also shares some insights into how to get a job in events.

Working in tourism and hospitality, you will meet people from all walks of life and from all across the world. It's a high-energy and fast paced industry, where you'll often be on your feet most of the day and sometimes the hours can be long. You'll need to be OK with working under pressure, and to high standards. 

Working in tourism and hospitality: Real stories

The Hilton chain of hotels is one of the largest in the world, and employs almost 200,000 people worldwide across over 6,000 properties, in a wide range of tourism and hospitality roles.

Take a look at the following questions, to help get things started.

What kind of work do you want to do?

With such a range of jobs available, the first step is to decide what kind of work you would like to do. For example; do you want to work front of house — directly with customers? Or are you more interested in back of house — a less 'hands on' role? 

On the new Tourism, Hospitality and Events Careers Guide website, you can see what type of jobs match up with your personality.  

Start your adventure today!

Western Australia’s tourism and hospitality industry is your ticket to a career where adventure is always part of the job description and the opportunities are as vast as our sun-kissed state.

Find your tourism and hospitality job at westernaustralia.jobs. Dedicated to WA’s tourism and hospitality industry, the website is free and connects you directly with employers.

We have worked closely with WA's leading tourism and hospitality industry representatives and employers to identify the types of skills needed right now and for future jobs, and developed free* skill sets (short courses).

Half price tourism and hospitality qualifications

How would you like to get a nationally recognised and accredited qualification but pay only half-price course fees? Or even less than half price! And how about a fees cap? Eligible concession students will pay no more than $400 total for course fees in any one year*! 

Getting a job without any relevant skills or experience is not easy... right? While the tourism and hospitality industry does offer a range of entry level jobs that don't require a qualification, you will be able to access a better range of job opportunities if you have some experience, skills and knowledge.  That's where these other options can offer you a great pathway to skill up and get job ready.

This course list details all of the courses and qualifications that are subsidised through Jobs and Skills WA for the tourism and hospitality industry. It includes free skill sets (short courses), and qualifications with course fees reduced through Lower Fees, Local Skills.
