Role of the Department of Employment, Small Business and Training

Support apprentices and trainees

We support apprentices and trainees by:

• providing information, support and advice about your apprenticeship or traineeship
• helping you meet your training contract responsibilities
• protecting you by making sure your employer, training organisation and Apprentice Connect Australia Provider carry out their contractual obligations
• managing travel and accommodation subsidies
• supporting apprentices and trainees with disabilities
• issuing your completion certificate once you've successfully completed your apprenticeship or traineeship.

Match apprentices with employers

We fund Trade Apprentices, a free job matching service for apprentices who have lost their job and want to get back into their apprenticeship.

Run Apprenticeships Info

We support and advise all groups involved in Queensland-based apprenticeships and traineeships, including apprentices and trainees like you.
