The Industry Reference Committee (IRC) is made up of people with experience, skills and knowledge of their industry sector and may be individuals or representatives of businesses or organisations. The IRCs operate as committees of the Australian Industry and Skills Committee (AISC).

IRCs are responsible for directing their allocated Skills Service Organisation (SSO) in developing business cases to request the commissioning of training package development work to meet the skills needs of industry.

IRCs also have responsibility for gathering industry intelligence to inform training product development. They oversee development and review of training packages, including preparation of cases for endorsement and provide sign-off on completed training packages, prior to submission to the AISC for endorsement.

The NRA Retail Institute are a proud member of the Wholesale and Retail Industry Reference Committee and can help include your feedback on industry in IRC consultations.
