2023 Australian Skills Classification Update

The Australian Skills Classification helps define the skills that underpin jobs in Australia. The 2023 update of the Australian Skills Classification (the Classification) is now available.

The Classification identifies three types of skills for every occupation: specialist tasks, technology tools and core competencies. Similar specialist tasks are grouped together into skills clusters, which are further grouped into skills cluster families.

You can explore the data by skills cluster or by occupation. See the Downloads tab for resources such as the latest data set and reports providing detailed information on the Classification and the methodology. The Similar Occupations tab features an application of the Classification.
