Coming to Australia and want to work in the Hospitality Industry? Do you want an Australian Accredited Certificate?
Read MoreTo assist in clearing up any confusion the “wage subsidy” of BAC – “Boosting Apprentice Commencement” (the name given to this by the government), is available for eligible employees who can undertake Hospitality training at either Certificate II, Certificate III or Certificate IV levels in a Traineeship, in addition to Certificate III in Commercial Cookery Apprenticeship.
That is, it can be front of house or back of house staff who may be eligible*.
The funding (wage subsidy) is up to a maximum of 50% per quarter to not greater than $7,000 per quarter and is for 12 months from the date of “sign up”.
By completing the online information, we at Austrain Academy can then with the assistance of the Apprenticeship Centre build a reasonably accurate financial plan of what the wage subsidies (income) and training costs (expenses) may well be.

The Australian Government has announced a new program called 'Boosting Apprenticeship Commencements'. It is designed to assist job seekers into Australian Apprenticeship jobs, and to help employers take on new staff.
This program is part of the COVID-19 economic recovery. It is available across all industries and to businesses of all sizes.
Eligibility requirements for the Boosting Apprenticeship Commencements wage subsidy have changed from Wednesday 28 October 2020.
These changes affect the eligibility of existing workers. The updated Department of Education, Skills and Employment Fact Sheet has the following information about these changes:
From 28 October 2020, your business or Group Training Organisation may be eligible to attract a subsidy for up to 30 existing workers who commence a non-trade Australian Apprenticeship on or after 28 October 2020 if they:
No limit will apply where the existing worker commences a trades-based Australian Apprenticeship.
For information on you or your staff member's eligibility, contact an Australian Apprenticeship Support Network provider. To discuss how an Australian Apprenticeship might work for you, get in touch via or contact form or give us a call.

Austrain Academy would like to thank all of our employers and students for adapting to rapidly changing arrangements during this difficult time. It has been a steep learning curve for all of us, so thank you all for your patience and cooperation!
We have instituted strict social distancing and hygiene measures and limited class sizes for those students who need to attend face to face practical training sessions. Where possible, students are attending online training sessions and completing assessments remotely.
We are still taking enrolments for new students so please get in touch if you are thinking of completing some training.
Austrain Academy will continue to monitor the situation closely and take advice from NSW Health and other relevant government authorities to ensure we are responding to the situation appropriately. We will keep you informed of any changes to our operations.
If you are an apprentice or trainee, your training contract and training can continue for six months even if you don't have an employer. Please contact us if your employment situation changes or you have any questions.

You have all gone above and beyond to train, help and direct not just myself but several staff members and we thank you.
