Sector snapshot: Victoria's real estate sector

This document provides a snapshot of skills demand for the real estate services sector in Victoria. For the purposes of this snapshot, the real estate services sector includes businesses who sell, lease and manage both residential and non-residential properties on the behalf of others. This excludes landlords who own and lease property without third party involvement. This snapshot provides a genuine understanding of the current and future (1-3 year horizon) skills and training requirements of the sector, with a focus on the element of the workforce using vocational education and training (VET) courses and their career pathways. It also considers the impact of the [Coronavirus Disease 2019] COVID-19 pandemic on the future jobs and skilling needs of the sector.

The Victorian VET system aims to deliver 'real training for real jobs' by providing up to date training for new challenges in the sector. This report is part of a series of sector snapshots which are being developed by the Office of the Victorian Skills Commissioner (OVSC). The set of sector demand snapshots complements the Commissioner's regional skills demand profiles [available in VOCEDplus at TD/TNC 133.933, TD/TNC 137.227 and TD/TNC 145.288] to provide a richer picture of the skills needs of Victorian employers.
