| Apprenticeships
and Traineeships |
| |
The Apprenticeship and Traineeship website provides an overview
of the apprenticeship and traineeship system in Western Australia.
The website provides information of value to jobseekers interested
in apprenticeships and traineeships, current apprentices and trainees,
employers interested in engaging an apprentice or trainee, employers
that currently employ an apprentice or trainee, Registered Training
Organisations, Group Training Schemes, New Apprenticeships Centres
and other parties interested in the apprenticeship and traineeship
system.
For example, jobseekers can find out how to become an apprentice
or trainee and search through a list of available apprenticeships
and traineeships to determine which one they would be most interested
in completing. Current apprentices and trainees can also obtain
information from the website that might assist questions they may
have during the course of their traineeship or apprenticeship. This
site also has some useful links and contact details of organisations
involved in apprenticeships and traineeships that may a be of assistance.

| Building
Skills Policy |
| |
The Building Skills Policy is a skills development policy for the
building and construction industry.
The Western Australian Government and the building and construction
industry have made a firm commitment to building skills within the
industry to ensure an adequate supply of skilled labour for current
and future needs. The Building Skills Policy utilises State Government
building and construction contracts as a mechanism for skills development
in the sector.
The Policy complements the Building and Construction Industry Code
of Practice introduced by the industry and the Government early
in 2002. Best practice in the area of training is a significant
clause in the Code of Practice. This Policy establishes the minimum
amount of training required to be completed by Contractors when
undertaking Western Australian Government building and construction
contracts.
