One of the first hurdles when applying for a new apprenticeship or traineeship is creating a convincing resume. This will be the first – and perhaps only – chance you get to impress a prospective employer of your abilities.
Finding a company that’s the right fit for you can have a massive impact on your apprenticeship or traineeship. If there are opportunities available after you’ve earned your qualification, you may even decide to stay on with your current employer if the placement went particularly well.
Embarking on a career change is a huge decision, so you’ll want to make sure it’s the right move for you before taking the plunge. If you feel starting over again is the only choice, there are plenty of tools and resources available to help you make the switch.
Hiring a new apprentice or trainee requires good organisation and communication with the parties involved, including training organisations, Australian Apprenticeship Support Services providers and applicants.
The apprenticeship and traineeship process can seem complicated for employers who have never provided this kind of on-the-job training before. While there is lots of information regarding these programs, it can get a little confusing when there’s multiple organisations involved and various websites to visit.
Taking on an apprentice or trainee is a great way to prepare your organisation for skills gaps you expect to open up in the future. Not only can you tailor the candidate’s training to meet your specific requirements, you’ll often build a rapport with your employee that could boost retention.
Diversity in the workplace brings a number of benefits, including better staff retention, higher productivity and the ability to appeal to a broader client and customer base.
An apprenticeship may conjure up images of construction, mining or manufacturing jobs, but did you know Commercial Cooking and Hairdressing are also considered trades?
There are many types of apprenticeships and traineeships available in Australia, enabling people from a variety of backgrounds to gain the qualifications they need to pursue their dream career.
If you’ve started an apprenticeship or traineeship, chances are you’ll want to impress your employer by excelling at your job. Unfortunately, mistakes can happen when you’re still learning the ropes of a new profession.
