Swan Hill Rural City Council
The inaugural Swan Hill Region Workforce Development Strategy focuses on four sectors, manufacturing, health/aged care, agriculture and community services.
In April 2013 the Swan Hill Region Workforce Development Strategy Steering Committee committed to developing a Swan Hill Region Workforce Development Strategy. The strategy aims to support local people to:
- Develop skills and qualifications needed by the region’s employers.
- Improve the region’s ability to attract people with skills in demand.
- Increase employment opportunities for local people who are under-represented in the workforce.
The workforce development strategy aims to enable existing businesses to expand, attract new business to the region and grow the population as a whole.
