Group training aims to increase the number of Australian Apprenticeship employment opportunities that otherwise might not have existed, particularly in small to medium sized businesses.
Group Training Organisations employ apprentices and trainees and then place them with you, as the host employer, for as long as you need them. The Group Training Organisation undertakes the employer responsibilities for the continuity of the apprentices and trainees employment and training.
Group Training Organisations not only carefully select the right apprentice or trainee for your business, they also:
- handle the paperwork and payroll
- provide ongoing support
- provide flexibility to meet peak workloads and seasonal variations.
The extra support you receive from Group Training Organisations makes this an excellent option for taking on an apprentice or trainee from a variety of groups including a person with disability.
