Group Training Australian Apprenticeships Targeted Initiatives Program

The objective of the Group Training Australian Apprenticeships Targeted Initiatives Program is to fund Group Training Organisations (GTOs) to undertake Projects to generate quality Australian Apprenticeships opportunities, and employ Australian Apprentices in priority areas that would not otherwise happen without intervention.

The Program encourages development of transferable and sustainable models in new or under-serviced markets and aims to strengthen the broader group training sector to have a National impact.


Currently all Group Training Targeted Initiatives Program (TIP) funding for 2008 is fully committed. It is anticipated that information regarding future funding of this program will be announced in 2009.
