About Smart & Skilled Apprenticeship & Traineeships:

 

Employer or Host Employer

Your employer must provide a safe workplace where quality training, practical instruction and learning can occur.
Your legal employer may also be a Group Training Organisation (GTO). GTOs recruit you, pay your wages and place you with a host employer who conducts your workplace training.
Employers of apprentices are required to assist and supervise work-based training, pay wages and provide entitlements, provide a safe working environment and release their apprentice or trainee from work to participate in training with the RTO.

Apprenticeship Network Provider (ANP)

ANPs provide you with information, advice and support throughout your apprenticeship or traineeship. They prepare your National Training Contract, explain your rights and responsibilities and check that your training is progressing satisfactorily.They will advise you of any incentives or subsidies you’re entitled to and they can put you in contact with support services if you need them.
The employer will contact the ANP who assists the employer and apprentice to commence their apprenticeship.
