Australian Training Awards Open for 2019 Nominations

Whilst some categories require entry and competition through the state/territory levels, there are a number of direct entry categories within the Australian Training Awards.  Nominations are open for these awards across individual, business and RTO categories.

For individuals, winning an Australian Training Award will help you to:

• gain national recognition as a leader in your field of study, training or work
• develop networks within the Australian business sector and build new career opportunities
• represent your field of study, training or work as an ambassador for the national vocational education and training sector.

In addition, each individual category winner will receive $5,000 and each runner up will receive $2,500 prize money.

For businesses and RTOs, winning an Australian Training Award will mean your business or registered training organisation is recognised Australia-wide as a national leader in skills, training and workforce development.  Winning an Australian Training Award will help your business or registered training organisation to:

• extend its reach to a greater national audience, and potentially increase awareness to new customers
• gain national recognition for the implementation of quality training practices
• become a highly desirable work place for potential employees.

In addition, each organisation category winner will receive $5,000 prize money.

As they say, “you’ve got to be in it to win it”!  To read more about how to apply for the Australian Training Awards, see the information on their website.
