Group Training Services
Apprenticeships and Traineeships
IOGTA offer group training services like no other in Australia. Not only do we employ and place apprentices with industry host employers as regular group training organisations do, we also provide support to employers who choose to employ their apprentices directly. The holistic approach taken by IOGTA in supporting employers and their apprentices and trainees in the Indian Ocean Territories has led to business relationships that are strong and authentic, and which has resulted in training completion rates that are well above the national average.

Whether the employer chooses to employ direct or host the apprentice through IOGTA, we can provide the following support:
-

Help you choose a suitable TAFE or Registered Training Organisation;

(TAFE, Apprenticeship Office, Apprenticeship Support Network Providers) on your behalf; -

-
Conduct workplace monitoring to ensure the apprentice is ‘on track’ with their training.

Financial Assistance
Whereas apprentices attend TAFE for their off-the-job training, trainees typically complete their theory component of their studies remotely. To assist these trainees with their studies, IOGTA has financial provisions to heavily subsidise the cost for lecturers to travel to the Indian Ocean Territories to train and assess trainees in their workplace.
