Benefits of signing up a Trainee

  • Employing a a worker who will be getting current industry skilled training and experience

  • There is funding available for the Employer, RTO and Trainee. 


The costs involved in employing an apprentice or trainee may include:

  • recruitment costs to find the right person for the apprenticeship or traineeship

  • wages and entitlements including

    • superannuation

    • workers' compensation

    • cost of supplying tools (if required)

  • cost of providing special equipment (if required)

  • travel and/or accommodation costs for the apprentice or trainee to attend training

  • training costs.


Some training organisations are funded by the Queensland Government to provide training for some apprenticeships and traineeships at a reduced cost. This is referred to as User Choice and more information can be obtained from the Training Queensland website.

You have the option of selecting one of these training organisations to deliver the training for the apprenticeship or traineeship. Information regarding these training organisations is available from the Queensland Training Information Service (QTIS).

Alternatively, you can choose to pay the full fee for training delivered by an organisation that does not have a contract with the department.

The training organisation that you and your apprentice or trainee decides on must advise of any fees to be paid (including student contribution fees which are payable by the apprentice or trainee). You may be required to contribute towards the cost of training where the government's funding contribution does not meet the cost of training offered by the training organisation.

Conquest Communications is funded to provide training at a reduced cost and the current Certificate III Telecommunications qualification student contribution fee can be found here. This is for approved Government Funded Trainees only. 

 

Cost of training existing employees

Existing employees undertaking apprenticeships or traineeships may be eligible to receive funded training from those training organisations that have a User Choice funding contract with the department.
