Hire an apprentice or trainee

As a busy business, we understand recruiting and training an apprentice or trainee alongside completing projects can be risky. Whether a first year or an experienced fourth year, we provide apprentices and trainees to fill business needs.

 

Build your skilled workforce with our tailored apprentice and trainee solutions.

With over 30 years of experience, we connect businesses with reliable apprentices and trainees. As a registered Group Training Organisation (GTO), we simplify the process of hiring and managing apprentices and trainees.

Could your business benefit with up to $5,200 in government incentives to host an apprentice or trainee?

The Department of Employment and Workplace Relations is making it easier than ever for Small to Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to grow their teams and support the next generation of skilled workers.

Get up to $5,200 in savings over 12 months when you host Australian Apprentices through a Group Training Organisation (GTO).

Why join?

  • Save big – receive $100 per week, up to $5,200 annually, to offset GTO service fees.
  • Simple eligibility – SMEs with 199 or fewer employees that haven’t hosted an Australian Apprentice via a GTO in the past two years.
  • Limited opportunity – program kicks off January 1, 2025, only 400 places available nationally until January 2026.
