  1. Report backCOMMISSION 1 Sector skills review

  2. Feedback from the commission • Clarity on the presentation • Discussion • Proposed National Skills Council focusing on planning and shared services • Consultation • Way forward – business case

  3. Discussion & Questions • Will the Council take over this standards setting responsibility? What should the role of QTCO be then? • White paper places M&E in NSA - what’s will the relationship between NSA and New skills council be? • Moving QA to QCTO? Set up a new structure believing things will change? • It takes at least 5 years for a new organisation to mature. How can we fast track what we have instead of proposing new structures.

  4. Discussion & Questions • The system is confusing because there are many bodies - consolidate instead of building new structures • What is the mandate of all structures - align for common purpose SAQA/QCTO/SETAs • Silos - who’s looking at the big picture of what’s needed in the long term? • Change management-risk and cost/benefit analysis

  5. Feedback • Have we elevated SETAs to a national priority and are their skills relevant? • Is the system failing us? • Are we not duplicating the system collectively? Look at the skills research . Why need 21 SETAs in the Western Cape? Can’t we prioritize? • Need more Qualitative than Quantitative approach

  6. Feedback • Understand the context within which the task team was established • What is the business case that we need to put forward? • What is the NDP saying about this report? What to fix and where do we start? • Long plan HRD strategy responding to NDP

  7. Conclusions • Clear policy and a longer plan on where the economy is going-NDP • Common vision of where we want to go as a nation • Do we have the structures to align with that plan? • Re-look at the skills system at its entirety • Lessons from the past

  8. Conclusions • The SETA life span 5 years must be reviewed • Focus on legislative changes and clustering of SETAs – what forms the basis of clustering • What will happen to current foot soldiers • A single system is not ideal

  9. Conclusions • Principles & framework for decision making. • An “integrated skills system” debate, not a “landscape” review • Skills System recommendations • Hybrid model with National skills council, provincial and local structures with blend of sector, supply chain, occupational • Managing change • Strategic decision for change – the status quo is not going to address current or future challenges • Human Resources • Develop the skills of those employed in the system
