The Australian Government's National Training Reform Agenda has been criticised for failing to respond adequately to the demand side of the labour market and the needs of employers in particular (Sweet 1993, Curtain 1994). A major review of the implementation of the reforms over the last five years was commissioned by the Australian National Training Authority (ANTA) and was carried out by the Allen Consulting Group in 1994. The resulting report recommended that a ‘User Buys’ strategy be implemented as a key element in the reform program.
