Australia needs a national engineer strategy
Engineers are the backbone of Australia’s national economy, contributing the skills to plan, design and build national infrastructure and to innovate and drive productivity growth across all sectors of the economy.
The Australian National Engineering Taskforce (ANET) is a partnership directed to rebuilding, growing and maintaining Australia’s professional engineering capacity. ANET partners offer models and solutions to be brought together with new policies and programs to create a national engineer strategy.

ANET projects
While ANET was initially formed to develop contributions on Higher Education reform (see our submissions to the Deputy Prime Minister), we have been encouraged to broaden our agenda to include a range of projects on the following topics:
- Supply, demand and skills development analysis by industry sector, and in particular in major infrastructure industries such as road, rail, construction, water and electricity
- Migration
- Recruitment and retention strategies
- Higher Education
- VET and Higher Education articulation
- Contracting and procurement models
- On the job skills development
These projects will be rolled out progressively from the beginning of 2010.
