Tra
Hiya,
Were nearly ready to sent off for TRA, my husbands a Joiner. Amongst the threads I have read that even if you pass TRA, it doesnt mean you can automatically get a job. You may have to serve an apprenticeship for two years. Can anyone tell me if this is right, my husband has over 20 years experience and we are hoping to settle in Brisbane.
Thanks
Sharon

Thanks Wendy that will put Phils mind at rest, he didnt like the thought of having to do a 2 year course, not when we run a successfull business here and all the experience he has got. A few month Im sure he will manage though.
