Apprentice Kickstart: Increased Pre-Apprenticeship Training Opportunities

On 21 January, the Prime Minister, the Hon Kevin Rudd MP, and the Minister for Employment Participation, the Hon Mark Arbib MP, invited state and territory governments to submit proposals for a share of $20 million in funding to boost pre-apprenticeships under the Increased Pre-Apprenticeship Training Opportunities component of the Apprentice Kickstart measure.

Under this initiative, funding will be available for states and territories to develop and manage innovative programs and projects which increase the number of pre-apprenticeship training opportunities in their jurisdictions.
