Why should I employ an Apprentice or Trainee ?

No matter what industry you are in, investing in training through an Australian Apprenticeship can provide your business with real benefits. Employers now have more options and greater flexibility that can be tailored to your business, as well as access to a range of government financial incentives.

What are Apprenticeships and Traineeships ?

Apprenticeships and Traineeships are very similar, both offer training on-the-job, off-the-job or a combination of both and lead to an nationally recognised and accredited qualification. Australian Apprenticeships are 'competency based'. This means it may be possible for an Australian Apprentice to complete their training sooner if they have reached the skill level required. It is even possible to start an Australian Apprenticeship while still at school. In most instances employers may be eligible for financial incentives from the Australian Government for taking on and training Apprentices or Trainees.

Existing Workers

There may also be opportunities for existing staff members within your business to undertake an Apprenticeship or Traineeship. You may also be eligible for financial incentives, contact us to discuss further.
