Employers – Traineeships
Introduction to traineeships
Traineeships are a government funded initiative providing an avenue for employers to train both their new and existing staff to achieve an accredited qualification while taking away the financial burden. It was born out of a need for customised and flexible learning which related to the workplace.
Traineeships are ‘on the job’ training. Whereby training and assessment take place in the work environment. Employers, Industry groups and Government bodies formulated a set of competencies to enhance and facilitate an effective training program which formed the core of a Traineeship.
Training is delivered fully or partially on the job and will recognise prior learning and current competencies. Depending on the qualification it can take anywhere between 12 months to 2 years to complete. We will work with you to deliver the training in an environment which promotes active learning and to make sure that there is minimal impact on you, so its ‘business as usual’.
Traineeships are available for both new and existing full-time and part – time employees and are typically 1 or 2 years duration depending on the qualification undertaken.
How does a Traineeship benefit me as an employer? Read more >
Traineeships are an excellent way to ensure that your employees have the theoretical knowhow to perform their duties in conjunction with practical on-the-job skills catered to your workplace.
Usually when an employee undertakes any form of training it requires time away from work which can be costly to your business. However with a traineeship the trainer comes to you at your workplace.

What is Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) & Recognition of Current Competency (RCC)? Read more >
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is an assessment process that recognises competencies you currently have, regardless of how, when or where the learning occurred. This includes competencies attained through any combination of formal or informal training and education, work experience or general life experience.
Credit transfer recognises any formal qualifications you have achieved. You will need to provide a copy of the qualification and a list of the units achieved. These must match the units you are mapping against. If the units are from a similar / earlier qualification you will need to map these and discuss with the relevant trainer.
