PLASTICS FABRICATOR APPENTICESHIP
-
The
trade of Plastics Fabricator is new, approved by the State
Government in February 2004
-
It
is a 3 year Apprenticeship.
-
Each
of the 3 stages of training toward the trade qualification
involves approximately 30 days at college. This is usually
offered in one week blocks.
-
If
the prospective apprentice already has some skills in the
industry, the PARTEC Institute will assess these, so that
time at college is reduced.
-
The
stages of training are linked to payscales in the Rubber and
Plastics Award (State).
