Department of Education, Training and Employment - Queensland Apprenticeship Pledge Please see below information regarding a new initiative of the Queensland Government, titled the ‘Queensland Apprenticeship Pledge’. Under the Pledge, the Government invites individual employers to ‘make a pledge’ to employ additional apprentices. Eligible employers can receive an incentive of up to $6000 for each additional apprentice they employ and train. Only employers that make a pledge are eligible to receive the incentive payments up to the number of additional apprentices pledged. The incentive is paid in two stages:
The incentive will apply to eligible apprenticeships commenced from 1 July 2014 to 30 June 2015. Employer benchmarks are based on additional apprentices employed and retained compared to a baseline as at 30 June 2014 (excluding school-based apprentices and apprentice re-commencements). The Fact Sheet can be found at the link below – http://trainandemploy.qld.gov.au/resources/employers/pdf/pledge-fact-sheet.pdf The Program guidelines can be found at the link below – Your Pledge can be lodged at the following link – http://trainandemploy.qld.gov.au/employers/apprenticeship-pledge/index.html
