With our so called skills shortage its amazing we cant even agree on a lisencing system that is country wide with all states having the same requirements and lisences. I dont believe we have a skills shortage, just a wage injustice making other jobs such as plant operating more atractive to tradesmen. If trade wages lifted you would see tradespeople coming back to their trades. Doesnt matter how many mechanics you train if they can earn more driving a truck or being a parts interpreter. Just my rant!
