Research on Australian organizations in five industry sectors--building and construction, food processing, electronics manufacturing, retailing, and finance and banking--has identified these three key drivers of enterprise training: workplace change, quality assurance, and new technology. Operation of the training drivers is moderated by a range of factors internal to the enterprise of training moderators, including enterprise size, industry traditions of training, occupational structure, industrial relations, management attitudes, and government training policy. Forthcoming research has also investigated the type of training provided when there are these five forms of workplace change: teamworking, total quality management, lean production, learning organization, and business process re-engineering. An Australian Industry Group study points to these number of key factors associated with provision of industry training in Australian enterprises: workplace change, generic skills, training and business strategy, and new training structures. Skills and training requirements for Australian enterprises are changing. There is an increasing demand for higher levels of skills; the source of these skills will be adult re-skilling; and changes in the labor market are emphasizing the emergence of non-standard forms of employment, such as casualized and outsourced workers.
