So, you’re interested in getting into a trade, but have no idea where to start or what trade you’d be good at. A great place to start is reaching out to a Registered Training Organisation (RTO) like DGT Employment & Training (DGT).
Whether it’s the first step in your career pathway, looking to make a career change later in life, or you want your experience recognised with relevant qualifications – RTO’s can help you gain the skills, knowledge, and experience required to succeed in your chosen field.
What are the benefits of an RTO?
Studying with an RTO is often a faster and cost-effective way to complete a qualification and enter the workforce sooner. This is a major benefit when gaining Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL), a process that assesses your competency, acquired through formal and informal learning to determine if you meet the requirements for a unit of study. This can be achieved through life experience, work or activities like volunteering in Australia or overseas, to determine if you meet the requirements for a unit of study at an RTO level.
Why DGT?
Through Vocational Educational Training (VET), DGT have the knowledge and expertise to deliver a hands-on learning experience, equipping you with the practical skills needed for when you enter the workforce. In addition, all training and education is vetted and the qualifications you achieve are nationally recognised.
