Support and advocacy
During the term of a school-based apprenticeship or traineeship (SAT) the Department of Education and Training (DET) may be involved in decision making around registered training contracts, e.g. cancellation or amendment.
If this occurs, school-based apprentices or trainees and their employers may be requested to verbally respond or submit written information to the department.
Parties may choose to obtain legal support or advice to assist throughout this process. There are state-wide services that may be accessed by school-based apprentices or trainees or employers to obtain support or assistance in relation to all types of employment issues.
To learn more, read the information sheet on assistance and support which also includes a list of support agencies.
