Background – Membership & Purpose • In 2008 Energy Networks Association (ENA) member companies commenced development of the Australian Skills Passport. • Initially the working group consisted entirely of ENA member companies • Since that time, membership has expanded to include the ETU, EE-Oz and the Dept of Energy Resources and Tourism (DRET) • The Passport’s primary purpose is to remove barriers to the portability of the Electricity Supply Industry (ESI) workforce and to encourage convergence in ESI training standards

  3. Background – Passport Types • There are two types of Passports being developed under the same principles and rules: • Paper Passport • Primarily the same as the current Victorian and Tasmanian Passports with improved design • Electronic Passport • An IT system which relies on the digital recording of information onto a credit card sized plastic card • Information is retrieved using a central data base

  4. Background – Website & Rules • The Passport working group (WG) has developed a website which acts as an information portal and a window to the Passport database • To underpin the consistent application of the Passport across the ESI, the WG has developed Administration Rules which address: • Responsibilities • Passport issue, records and numbering • Passport entries • The database • Withdrawals and restrictions • Mutual Aid

  5. Background – The database • The database being used to manage the Passport is based on a project initiated in QLD in 2008 • The database has the ability to generate a unique number for all ESI workers in Australia. • Allows industry to run demographic reports such as profiling of trades by age and jurisdiction. • Data to be collected for recording in database is limited to: • Name, DOB, Gender • Functional Role (eg.
