Grow your business with apprentices & trainees
Just One More Protech Plus
With Protech apprentices and trainees you can upskill your current workforce by providing comprehensive training and development, while ongoing support is provided throughout placement including administration, mentoring, and safety management.
Benefits Of Hiring An Apprentice Or Trainee
Future-proof Your Workforce
The challenges of an ageing workforce and a deepening skills shortage will only be remedied by a proactive and targeted approach to workforce development, which includes the employment of apprentices and trainees in well-structured and meaningful programs.
Industrial Agreement
Protech's Industrial Agreement allows for the facilitation of these training options, offered under a model that has been developed by Protech to assist our clients in meeting industry-specific skilling requirements, now embedded in most Commonwealth and state government-funded infrastructure projects.
Apprentice & Trainee Management
Protech acts as the legal employer and is responsible for carefully selecting the apprentice or trainee, managing all training activity, completing the relevant paperwork for wages, allowances, superannuation, workers compensation and employee benefits, and rotating the apprentice or trainee between different business as required.
Cost-neutral Training
Protech appreciates that most modern infrastructure projects include some element of training, often in the form of mandatory training quotas to be achieved as part of the overall project deliverables. In line with this requirement, Protech has established a training solution that allows us to develop cost-neutral training solutions for our employees across various industries.
Mentoring and development is key to leading the next generation
Providing a safe worksite.
Protech continuously seeks improvements from our clients to ensure our employees go home safely each and every day.
Job-ready employees.
Protech provides employees with all the necessary advice and introductions to make their first day on the job stress-free and successful.
Meeting training competencies.
Ongoing Protech support ensures that our apprentices and trainees have all the tools they need to meet the requirements of their relevant qualifications.
A Head Start With School-based Traineeships
To bridge the gap between education and the workforce, we offer school-based traineeships to help lead young people into their desired career path. These traineeships allow high school students to develop the skills and knowledge of the workplace while still at school; giving them the opportunity to earn an income while they learn, and helping them get ahead of other applicants in the industry.
Enhancing Career Paths Through Protech Prospects
The Protech Prospects for our apprentices and trainees focuses on four pillars: Learn, Earn, Compete, Complete. This methodology was created to provide the support necessary for our workforce to excel in an apprenticeship, traineeship, or school-based opportunity. We believe that this supportive environment will give our future tradespeople the best possible head start in their career.
