Given the ATCs will be providing training in trades that have been traditionally male dominated, what is the Australian Government doing to encourage women into non-traditional trade careers?
The Australian Technical Colleges will be required to have strategies to attract female students into traditionally male dominated trades. In addition, as part of the New Apprenticeships Incentives Programme that provides financial incentives to employers of New Apprentices, including School Based New Apprentices, there is an additional incentive to encourage an employer to commence a female in a non-traditional trade. The special Women in Non-traditional New Apprenticeships incentive is aimed at encouraging employers to employ a female in a New Apprenticeship at the Certificate level II-IV in an eligible ‘non-traditional’ New Apprenticeships Training Package.
