I work for the Education system and let me tell you
the Federal Govt give employers of apprentices and trainees
$4500 for them to achieve a Cert III qualification
Apprentices and some trainees are entitled to
Tool allowances $800 p/y
Fee allowances $500 p/y (trainees $400)
Travel and accommodation allowance if they travel over 35klms one way to TAFE
Payment by the State Government to training organisations for delivery to an apprentice $13000 over 3 years and most of this is on the job training
The employer and apprentice pay nothing and these same apprentices once qualified could be earning $100000 or more per year.
My daughters are going to UNI, one to be a nurse, HEC's debt when they finish, pay for all their books and ancillaries get nothing for travel and still have to work part time to pay their way.
The Govt gone loopy they've got it all wrong we are moddle coddling a generation who will grow up thinking they are not responsible for anything including their own future.
