South Australian Skills Act 2008

The Minister may, by notice in the Gazette and on the recommendation of the Commission, declare an occupation to be a trade or a declared vocation (as the case requires).

A notice under subsection (1) must, in relation to each trade or vocation to which the notice relates:

identify the job or occupation, or class of job or occupation, to which the trade or vocation relates; and

identify any relevant pathways (including, where appropriate, pathways at a national level) to the trade or vocation; and

contain any other information required by the regulations.

To avoid doubt, a relevant pathway to a trade or vocation may, in addition to the primary qualification relating to the trade or vocation, include—

pre‑apprenticeships or pre‑traineeships;

or

specified skill sets; or

higher qualifications; or

such other matters as the Minister thinks appropriate.
