Application to reschedule apprentice training

In signing a training contract, employers have entered an agreement, which binds each party to obligations under the State legislation. In relation to attendance at off the job training, employers are obliged to:

• Release the apprentice from work to attend any training and assessment specified in the training plan;
• Ensure the training plan is followed, training records are kept up to date and the apprentice's progress is monitored.

I certify that I am a person within our organisation authorised to make an application to seek a change to an apprentice’s Training Schedule and I understand:

• Our organisation’s obligations under the Vocational Education and Training Regulations in relation to apprentice attendance at off the job training, as listed above.
• If approved, rescheduling training may result in the employer having to request an extension to Training Contract.
• Rescheduling training may result in the employer or apprentice still being liable for fees (in accordance with DTWD Fees & Charges Policy).
• Apprentices are committed to attending the full block training regardless of missing the first days through absenteeism/illness.
• Rescheduled training may not be at the same campus as the initial training.
