Review of User Choice arrangements While private RTOs with appropriate registration scope can currently apply to deliver any traineeship anywhere in the State, the Department has used a “thin markets” approach to manage the apprenticeship training market. Under this policy, apprenticeship courses available for delivery have been restricted to a small number, largely in the Perth metropolitan area. In 2007 the Department commissioned a review of its User Choice arrangements. The resulting report, which was endorsed by the Minister for Education and Training, made a number of recommendations that will impact on User Choice arrangements in Western Australia. Amongst these was a recommendation that the apprenticeship training market should be opened up to allow private RTOs with appropriate scope to apply to deliver any publicly funded apprenticeship anywhere the State.
