NAEN is pleased to advise that the new Apprentice and Trainee Re-engagement Register is now up and running.
The Register will enable apprentices and trainees from small businesses who lost their jobs due to the coronavirus outbreak to connect with prospective employers, find work and continue their training.
The Register was announced by the federal government in the first economic stimulus package, and is being operated by NAEN on behalf of the Commonwealth to support displaced apprentices and trainees.
This is a proud moment for group training – playing its part in the national effort to address the enormous health and economic challenges the country faces.
Please see the attached NAEN media release.

We would be most pleased if you are able to help promote the Register. Below is a short news item that you are free to use in your own communications and share with stakeholders.
National register will connect apprentices and trainees with employers to safeguard jobs and careers
Apprentices and trainees from small businesses who recently lost their jobs are now able to connect with prospective employers to explore ongoing work, through the Apprentice and Trainee Re-engagement Register
The service will support apprentices and trainees displaced as a result of the coronavirus outbreak, by connecting them with employers across the country. The register enables apprentices and trainees who were in a training contract with a small business at March 1 to upload details such as qualifications, work experience and resumes.
Employers of any size, including Group Training Organisations, are able to register their details and post a vacancy for an apprentice or trainee. Employers who re-engage an apprentice or trainee may be eligible for a wage subsidy of 50 per cent of their wage, under the government’s Supporting Apprentices and Trainees initiative.
