Group Training provides the best opportunity for an individual to complete a qualification through an apprenticeship or traineeship.

Group Training is a training and employment arrangement where an organisation, known as a Group Training Organisation GTO, employs an apprentice or trainee under an Apprenticeship / Traineeship Training Contract and places them with host employers.

A GTO assumes the employer responsibilities for the quality and continuity of the apprentices’ and trainees’ employment and training. The GTO also manages the additional care and support necessary to achieve the successful completion of the training contract.

Benefits of undertaking an apprenticeship / traineeship through Group Training:
