Value proposition

Industry owned. Industry led.

The Manufacturing Industry Skills Alliance (Manufacturing Alliance) is the Jobs and Skills Council (JSC) for the manufacturing industry. It is an industry- owned and industry- led organisation supporting the development of skilled workforces that enable modern manufacturing and associated industries to succeed. We work with stakeholders across Australia including employers, unions, educators, learners and governments to build a skilled workforce for now and for the future.

Our predecessor, IBSA Group, was part of the vocational education and training sector for 20 years including being a Skills Service Organisation for the manufacturing industry.

The headquarters of the Manufacturing Alliance is in Melbourne and our team is based throughout Australia.
