Minister for Training and Workforce Development

Minister for Training and Workforce Development is a position in the government of Western Australia, currently held by Simone McGurk of the Labor party. The position was first created after the 1933 state election, for the government of Philip Collier, but was abolished in 1943 and not re-created until 1982. It had been a distinct portfolio in most governments since then, albeit under several different names. The minister was responsible for the state government's Department of Training and Workforce Development (DTWD).

Following the WA State Election in 2017, the portfolio no longer exists. The new portfolio is now Education and Training, held by Sue Ellery.
