What’s more, if you choose to employ a bricklaying apprentice through a registered GTO, you will still qualify for ABBTF’s Brickstart Subsidy!
No other construction trade provides Support Funding for the development of its industry’s apprenticeship program. This unique offer is made possible from a combined small levy on the sale of bricks, matched by funds from brick and block manufacturers. To find out more go to ABBTF website.

BUSY At Work have excellent relations with the construction industry and are strong advocates for employers to take on apprentices in our traditional trades. Bricklaying is listed on the National Skills Needs List which identifies traditional trades that are recognised as experiencing a national skills shortage. The list is based on detailed labour market research and analysis.
