Training Advisory Councils

Training Advisory Councils (TACs) are autonomous organisations that work with industry, enterprises, governments and training providers to improve training arrangements for their respective industries. 

Specifically, operational support funding is provided to TACs to assist the Department of Education, Employment and Training to:

  • Contribute a Territory perspective to the development, implementation, maintenance and review of training packages;
  • Act as a conduit between enterprises, industry and government on vocational education and training planning, policy and practice; and
  • Increase awareness and uptake of Vocational Education Training.

There are six TACs in the Northern Territory, each with links to National and Interstate Training Advisory networks.
