Apprentice Employment Network
Some organisations hire apprentices and trainees and place them with host employers. These organisations are called Group Training Organisations. They operate across Australia with some specialising in particular industries, while others cover many.
Group Training Organisations complete employer duties, which include:
- selecting and recruiting apprentices and trainees
- paying wages, allowances, superannuation, workers compensation, sick/holiday pay and other employment benefits
- managing the quality and continuity of training, both on and off the job
- providing any care and support the apprentices needs to complete their training.
You can search for registered Group Training Organisations by visiting the Australian Apprenticeships website
The Apprentice Employment Network NSW and ACT also provides information on their members on the Apprentice Employee Network website
