Apprentices & Trainees
Recruit. Develop. Retain.
Train & Retain supports WA businesses through the apprentice and trainee journey, from recruitment and onboarding through mentoring, management and ongoing workplace support.
The Train & Retain Approach
More than recruitment.
Train & Retain doesn’t just place an apprentice or trainee and step away. Our team stays involved through recruitment, onboarding, training coordination and day-to-day mentoring — support that continues for as long as it’s needed, not just until the placement is made.
Recruitment & onboarding
Sourcing, screening and shortlisting candidates, then getting them started the right way.
Mentoring & management
Ongoing pastoral care, on-site support and a trusted point of contact through the apprenticeship or traineeship.
Training coordination
AASN sign-up assistance, TAFE / RTO enrolment and WH&S training, coordinated on your behalf.
