Pacific Alliance Pilot of APEC Occupational Standards – Latin America (Peru, Chile, Mexico and Colombia)
The aim of this pilot project is to work closely with the four participating countries to map, validate and implement the APEC Occupation Standards for the occupations of Cook and Housekeeper.
SkillsIQ was originally involved in the development of these Occupational Standards for APEC and so has a deep understanding of the occupational standards as well as insights on local contexts that it is applying to support countries through the project phases.
The project has involved establishing a Steering Committee, as well as facilitating a preliminary workshop in Chile in May 2019. Since then, SkillsIQ has been actively engaging with participating countries and assisting them with local industry engagement, mapping regional standards to APEC Occupational Standards, and addressing gaps and issues encountered through the activities. Once mapping exercises are completed, SkillsIQ will be facilitating workshops in all four countries to validate standards with industry and training professionals, and support upskilling in curriculum development.
