The right Registered Training Organisation for your apprentice/trainee
The choice of training organisation is yours.
User Choice
User Choice is a policy that allows you with your apprentice or trainee to select the Registered Training Provider (RTO) that will provide the quality accredited training that meets your specific needs.
Your Australian Apprenticeships Centre (AAC) can provide you with assistance to find the right RTO.
Traineeships
In NSW User Choice applies to all traineeships.
Apprenticeships
User Choice operates for a limited number of apprenticeships in specific geographic regions. TAFE is the major supplier of training for all other apprenticeships. Check with your AAC to find an RTO.
Training costs
The funding of training delivered to your apprentice or new entrant trainee is covered by the NSW Apprenticeship and Traineeship Training Program.
However, your RTO will probably charge you an administration fee. The fee is based on the current TAFE rate. In 2011 this is $424.
