The Northern Territory Government offers a range of pathways and programs for apprentices and trainees.

Apprenticeships and traineeships combine training and employment to lead to nationally recognised qualifications for employees whist also building the workforce for your future.

Apprentices and trainees are the foundation of our Territory workforce and valuable contributors to the Territory economy.

Australian Apprenticeships Support Network is the first point of contact for businesses that wish to take on apprentices or trainees. On behalf of the Australian and Northern Territory governments, it:

• conducts sign up visits
• inspects workplaces and approves employers
• registers training agreements
• provides advice and assistance
• monitors apprentices and trainees and resolves disputes
• pays Australian and Northern Territory government subsidies to eligible employers, apprentices and trainees
• conducts site visits to the workplace
• processes cancellations, assignments and completions
• issues certificates of registration and other notices to employers and apprentices and trainees.

For information about hiring an apprentice or trainee, go to Australian Apprenticeships Support Network Services.
