The program is focused on recognising the individual skills and knowledge of each apprentice at every stage as they progress through their apprenticeship. Industry mentors will provide support services tailored to an individual’s learning needs, boosting each apprentice’s capacity to complete their training program.

The pilot will commence in 2013 and initially include up to 1000 apprentices across the country, with the main focus to improve the electrical apprentice completion rate.

This program has been developed with key industry partners:

• ƒƒNational Electrical and Communication Association

• Master Electricians Australia

• Electrical Trades Union
