Industry Training Organizations

Industry Training Organizations (ITOs) are the mechanism by which the ITA is giving industry lead responsibility for improving industry training in a specific sector. They are not-for-profit legal entities with responsibility for designated industry training programs. ITOs are established by industry and accountable to the ITA through Partnership Agreements that specify services provided to the ITA and the ITO's roles in supporting industry training.
