Recruitment companies are also eligible to attend Skills Australia Needs events. However, they must be able to provide evidence that they are acting on behalf of an Australian employer with legitimate vacancies in the targeted occupations.

Targeted occupations currently include:

  • engineering professionals
  • health professionals including doctors, nurses and allied health professionals
  • automotive, construction, electrical and mechanical tradespersons.

The department approves organisations wanting to participate after a pre-screening process.

Skills Australia Needs events do not attract a participation fee. Due to capacity limitations, organisations who lodge an expression of interest are selected on a first in, first served basis. Participating organisations will need to cover the cost of airfares, accommodation and any other expenses associated with attendance.
