Where are the apprentices?

G'day Torres,

I am emailing you because of the "Title" of my e-mail. are you still looking for an apprentice? let me know and I will let you know of a person who is currently looking within Brisbane. I finished cert IV with him, but there were no jobs since 2010 so, I went back to studies and he is still hunting for an apprenticeship position.

Cheers!

Where are the AME apprentices?
It appears less and less apprentices are attracted to AME trades, which must create an even greater skilled labour crisis in GA aircraft maintenance in the future.

I have a vacancy for a 2nd, 3rd or 4th year apprentice, age no barrier, in Central Queensland and no applicants. Zip, zilch, no interest at all.

Most trades are experiencing critical skills shortages, but if there are dimminishing numbers of apprentices entering aeroskills trades it will be impossible to keep Australia's aging aircraft flying in the future.
