Manufacturing Skills Queensland (MSQ)

Manufacturing Skills Queensland assists Queensland manufacturers to develop skilling strategies to ensure the global competitiveness of the State's manufacturing industry.

MSQ will develop strong and sustainable linkages with industry, particularly employers, to encourage an industry-owned and driven skilling agenda to address the key skills development and formation challenges facing Queensland manufacturers.
