The Textile Clothing Footwear and Leather Industry Advisory Body is the Industry Training Advisory Body (ITAB) for the Textile Clothing Footwear and Leather Industry in Victoria. There are two TCF&L IAB Executive Officers, one based at the TCFUA, Jen Wild and one based at the TFIA, Claire Fitzpatrick.
To ensure there is strong industry leadership of the training system, the Victorian Government funds a network of 16 ITABs, which are experts on training needs and delivery in their particular industries. ITABs provide authoritative, independent information on training needs, and promote skills development and take-up of training by businesses in their industries.
The Skills Victoria website www.skills.vic.gov.au has further details about the ITAB network and its role in the Victorian training system.
