Mark Callaghan’s Welcome
Monday the 21st of February saw the release of a key independent report on the future of the Australian Apprenticeship System titled, A Shared Responsibility – Apprenticeships for the 21st Century. The report, which can be downloaded here
highlights the challenges that face apprentices and trainees as well as offering ways in which these challenges can be met. To quote the report – “Our report contains a range of recommendations which are designed to achieve a high quality Australian Apprenticeship system, a system which will meet the skill needs for a changing Australian economy, as well as the aspirations and expectations of all its participants.”
