About Us

Sunshine Coast RJC has brought together a proactive and diverse group of representatives from the community who voluntarily contribute their knowledge, skills, insight and passion for the region, its people and its future growth.

ABOUT US

In 2024, Regional Jobs Committees will play a vital role in the Good People. Good Jobs: Queensland Workforce Strategy 2022–2032, connecting regional communities to workforce and skilling opportunities through region-specific solutions.

Through their efforts, RJCs:

  • identify local workforce challenges and connect stakeholders with government programs, resources, and events
  • address barriers to training, workforce participation and business growth
  • develop strategies to resolve skills gaps and workforce issues
  • support regional job growth and plan for future employment needs
  • foster collaboration among local businesses, industry leaders, government, training providers and schools to align local skills with economic activity.
