Addressing Skills Gaps - Regional Queensland Series 

Addressing Skills Gaps – Regional Queensland Series 

Accessing global talent: Employer seminars 

Between May and August this year, Migration Queensland will travel across regional Queensland to deliver a series of informative, targeted seminars for employers.  

These sessions are designed to demystify skilled migration and showcase the talent pipelines available to businesses seeking to help address skills gaps in their workforce that can’t be met locally. 

These events are for Business owners and employers, human resources professionals, local government business engagement officers, economic development and industry liaison officers and talent attraction and retention professionals.  

The Business, Industry and Regional Outreach (BIRO) Qld team will be speaking at these events focusing on hiring International Students on completion of their studies and on Sponsorship options for employing overseas workers.
