"The Role and Contribution of Tradespeople and Technicians in Australian Research & Development"

The University of Western Sydney and Wiyanga recently completed a major report to the Federal Government's Department of Employment and Workplace Relations (DEWR) on the role of tradespeople and technicians to Australia's research and development effort.

The report involved extensive interviews through many of the country's premier private and public sector research establishment and built on similar work by Dr. Phil Toner and Chris Lloyd on the labour market for trades and technicians over the last decade.

The report was presented to the DEWR staff in Canberra earlier this year and also to a conference of the OECD in Paris in July.
