This is a unique opportunity for all of us to look ahead and envisage the capabilities that a modern construction industry should have in just a few years from now. We need to create an industry that is not only attractive to our customers, it must also become an industry of first choice for future practitioners. These practitioners must be shown the amazing careers and opportunities that are ahead.

Our industry is constantly changing and becoming more complex. Emerging technology and real-time information can give us the opportunity to learn, communicate and adapt. Our education must prepare for this future, to train facilitators of change, critical thinkers, and activists of profession - to reinvent our industry to a more sustainable and progressive future.

We look forward to the benefits of the new Occupation Certificate Audit program. Together with the Six Pillar reforms, this training will assist in providing better built outcomes for consumers.
