Apprentices & Trainees at Sydney Institute

Regardless of your industry, investing in apprentices or trainees can greatly benefit your business and secure your future success.

Sydney Institute offers a wide range of apprenticeships and traineeships that extends beyond traditional trades into areas such as office and IT staff, transport and warehouse employees, and even front-line managers.

When your company hires new staff under the Australian Apprenticeships Scheme you may benefit from:

• specific training customised for your business
• fast-track training opportunities
• flexible on or off-site job training
• up to $4,000 incentive payments over the course of the apprenticeship
• payroll tax exemptions for employers of apprentices and trainees
• funded training financial bonuses for a wide range of employee categories such as mature age workers and areas with skill shortages.

Pre-vocational programs

Sydney Institute offers intensive programs that run between six and eight weeks to equip your prospective employees with the skills needed to be productive from day one of their apprenticeship and traineeship.

Existing Worker Traineeships

Sydney Institute runs existing worker traineeships to give your current employees the opportunity to:

• gain a nationally recognised qualification of their current level of knowledge
• develop new skills in line with the needs of the business
• undertake flexible training at any age.

As an employer, your business benefits from:

• a more focused, productive team who know you have invested in their future
• financial incentives from the government (subject to eligibility) which assist in off-setting the cost of training.

Some of the larger employers Sydney Institute has helped implement existing worker traineeships include:

• Franklins
• APC Logistics
• Department of Commerce
• NSW Treasury
• Roads and Traffic Authority
• PMP Print
• Tom & Franks
• Salmat.
