The Transport and Logistics Industry Skills Council (TLISC) is partnering with the International Specialised Skills Institute (ISS Institute) to offer two international fellowships for the amount of $12,500 each.
These fellowships aim to promote the acquisition of higher-level skills and an appreciation of international best practice in the transport and logistics industry. They are intended to examine innovative approaches that demonstrate potential benefits for Australian industry and enterprises.
To date, over 250 Australians have received ISS Institute Fellowships across many industry sectors. The institute is an independent, national organisation that works with Australian governments, industry and education institutions to enable individuals to gain enhanced skills and experience in traditional trades, professions and leading-edge technologies.
Applications are open to people Australia-wide in the sectors covered by TLISC, i.e. logistics and warehousing, road transport, aviation, rail, maritime and ports.
TLISC will work with the successful recipients upon their return to share and publicise the learnings and recommendations from their research.
It is recommended that applicants read TLISC’s 2014 Transport and Logistics Industry Environmental Scan for a strategic context of the industry prior to submitting their applications.
