The Western Australian Defence Industry Workforce Development Plan 2022—27, developed through the WA Defence Industry Workforce Office (WADIWO) and released by the State Government in November 2022, consolidates the strategies that have been committed to position WA for the pipeline of defence projects.
The plan details the WA Government’s key initiatives including a new $11 million workforce development package announced as part of the WA State Budget 2022—23 to ensure skilled paraprofessional and professional workers are available for defence industry projects now and into the future.
