The National Priorities and Industry Linkage Fund is a part of the Job-ready Graduates package of higher education reforms. The NPILF allocates grants to universities to help engage industry to produce job-ready graduates. It focuses on the following three priorities: increase the number of internships, practicums, and other innovative approaches to work-integrated learning, increase the number of STEM-skilled graduates and improve their employment outcomes and support universities to develop partnerships with industry.
