Occupational skill demands

Over the next 5 to 10 years, employers and other stakeholders believe that future skills requirements are likely to be driven by a growth in demand for vocational qualifications, specifically in those qualifications that will provide the health sector workforce with the capacity to fulfil new roles and competency requirements. 

The traditional roles of nurses and health care assistants are also expected to change in response to the pressures for improved health service delivery.  These pressures are likely to increase the demand for generic and basic skills as well as specialist skills.
