Recruiting trainers and assessors from industry

Attracting experienced tradespeople and industry professionals into Vocational Education and Training (VET) takes more than advertising a role. Recruitment approaches can unintentionally discourage potential entrants through unclear expectations and processes that don't reflect industry.

These resources help registered training organisations (RTOs) attract trainers and assessors with backgrounds in the automotive and mining industries, providing practical guidance on recruitment, job advertisements, candidate experience, and organisational readiness.
