Apprenticeships and traineeships provide the practical, on-the-job training you need to stay ahead of the game – and gone are the days when they were just for school-leavers wanting to be a tradie. Nationally accredited apprenticeship and traineeship qualifications are now available in just about every industry and can be taken up by your eligible new AND existing team members.
To make it easier for local ACT businesses to develop their workforce, funding is available for a range of approved apprenticeship and traineeship qualifications through the Skills Canberra User Choice program. *
Right now, when you sign your eligible new or existing workers into a nationally accredited apprenticeship or traineeship qualification, Skills Canberra will pay a portion of your training costs directly to your chosen Registered Training Organisation. You may also be eligible for Government financial incentives to further offset your training costs.
