Apprentices and Trainees
Welcome to NGT Tasmania
NGT Tasmania delivers qualifications through training to a wide range of industries. We aim to recognise and understand your needs and to meet those needs with flexible and innovative solutions.
Effective learning begins with a need to know, and the satisfaction of fulfilling this need. Learning should be an enjoyable and challenging experience. Knowledge is something you should invest in.
Your NGT Coach will help you identify and establish the abilities, skills and knowledge necessary for success in your chosen career.
We provide a range of different support options through our training. These are designed to allow you to take responsibility for your learning as you work to achieve your goals. We understand people work and learn in different ways, and our approach encourages you to choose the methods that suit you best.
When you start your training with NGT Tasmania you will have the following resources and support options:
Your NGT Coach
Your NGT Coach is your central contact with NGT Tasmania during the course of your Australian Apprenticeship. When you start, your NGT Coach will explain how your training process works and develop training plan together with you and your Workplace Coach.
Your NGT Coach will contact you regularly throughout your Australian Apprenticeship to see how you are progressing and if you need any help. If you have any concerns about your training please contact your NGT Coach.
Your Assessor
Your Assessor has appropriate training and assessment qualifications but most importantly has an industry rather than knowledge background. The Assessor will visit you in your workplace to carry out your assessments and monitor your progress against your training plan.
They can help you with the following:
- Apply for Recognition of Current Competence (RCC)
- Provide access to other learning materials and/or classes
- Provide on–the-job coaching and performance feedback
- Advise you of any off-the-job training
- Monitor and assess your workplace learning
- Liaise with your NGT Coach to report on your progress towards the qualification and concerns you may have
- Liaise with supervisors, peers and other people involves in you learning in the workplace
- Update your training plan after each assessment
Your Workplace Coach
Your Workplace Coach can be either your Supervisor or a colleague who has technical and organisational experience. Your Workplace Coach encourages you and provides on the job coaching. Your Workplace Coach works closely with your NGT Coach.
Your Workplace Coach has a lot of knowledge about the organisation you work for and will coach you using “real” workplace tasks and challenges.
Workshops
Workshops are held at NGT Tasmania and are classroom based training sessions to assist with your learning.
Your NGT Coach will advise you and your employer of upcoming workshops. IF you haven’t been notified of a workshop in your industry area, contact your NGT Coach and we’ll discuss establishing one.
