Regional Migration
The Goulburn Murray Regional Migration program runs as a joint initiative between the Greater Shepparton, Moira and Campaspe councils under the State Governments Global Skills for Provincial Victoria program.
The program aims to fulfill skill shortages in the region that cannot be satisfied by the existing workforce, which will in turn allow local business to expand and develop.
The program complements existing Economic Development services
by:
Identifying skills shortages in the region
Establishing sustainable relationships between businesses and
skilled migrants to enable the fulfillment of skill shortages
Providing information and advice to employers and business in
relation to the employment of skilled migrants
Providing links between newly arrived skilled migrants and
support services to help ease migrants and their families into our
local community.
