Brick & Blocklaying Incentive

 
Australian Brick & Blocklaying Training Foundation Ltd (ABBTF) have announced a new scheme to address the shortage of bricklayers.

ABBTF is now operating in SA Levy ($2/1,000 bricks). They have introduced an employment incentive which is in addition to existing Commonwealth and CITB incentives. That means $4,000 in Commonwealth incentives plus $12,000 in CITB incentives, and new $6,000 from ABBTF over the contract of training.

The scheme features the following programs:
- Financial Support for bricklayers and buildings employing and training apprentices
- Promotion of the trade in schools and the community
- Support for TAFE/RTO training in bricklaying at pre-entry and apprenticeship level
- Joint funding arrangements by industry and clay brick and concrete masonry manufacturers

For more information contact ABBTF on 03 9209 5777.

Looking for an apprentice? Our doorways2construction VET in Schools program has been a great success for the SA construction industry. About 70% of last year's group went on to secure work within the industry. D2C graduates are 'work ready', want a career in the industry and history shows they are most likely to 'stick with it ' and complete their Contract of Training and take their place in the industry workforce.

Call the CITB and ask how you can find a 'work ready' apprentice through doorways2construction. If you aren't in a position to take on an apprentice on your own, get in touch with one of the nine industry Group Training Schemes supported by the CITB, and find out how they can help you meet your needs and contribute to industry training for the future.
