Kickstart an apprentice now and receive the WPC Skills Rebate*

Fast forward your apprentice hiring decision, and pick up some talented young people as the economy recovers.

The Federal Government recently announced a new Australian ‘Apprentice Kickstart Program’ aimed at getting young people into traditional trade Australian Apprenticeships over the next three months. The program is a response to recent figures showing people starting trade apprenticeships had dropped by more than 20 per cent during the economic downturn and acknowledge thousands of school leavers are about to enter the job market.

WPC Group supports the Government’s position that now is the time to act. Through our WPC Skills Rebate*, employers who take on an apprentice may receive up to the first 4 weeks wages free.

HURRY – limited placements available. Only valid until 28th February 2010.

My consultant from GreenSkills informed me that they had nominated me for Victorian Trainee of the Year. Throughout the lengthy application and interview process, GreenSkills provided training, guidance and support. When I won the award for Victorian Trainee of the Year, GreenSkills were the first to congratulate me and made me feel extremely special and proud of my achievement.

We have found GreenSkills innovative in their approach to the recruitment of apprentices and found that they offer excellent ongoing support to us as a host employer, as well as to our apprentices. Finding suitable apprentices is always difficult and we have found that GreenSkills are able to match candidates to our requirements and then provide the ongoing support that is required.
