Skills frameworks define capability.
SiRI shows how that capability aligns with current employer demand.
Skills frameworks map learning to recognised skills.
SiRI adds the market-demand layer by measuring qualifications against what employers are actually hiring for.
WHY SKILL-LEVEL EVIDENCE MATTERS
Occupation frameworks define categories.
Skills reveal how work is changing.
Government classifications such as OSCA and ANZSCO provide essential structure, but as static frameworks, they cannot always keep pace with emerging position titles and changing skill requirements.
SiRI complements these frameworks with current, skill-level employer evidence showing what is changing within and across occupations.
From qualification content to market evidence
SiRI reads the skills embedded in qualifications and connects them to live role and employer-demand signals.
