Continuing Apprenticeship in Australia
Hi,
Is it possible for someone who hasn't finished their apprenticeship to complete it in Australia. I know a guy who is coming over to Australia from Ireland who has done 3 years of his apprenticeship but due to the collapse of the construction industry in Ireland he is unable to find work so is going to try his luck in Australia. Does anyone know if this possible? he is coming over on a working holiday visa which Iknow will probably not help his cause.

I guess the only way he is going to find out for sure is by asking though. Here's a link to the Apprenticeship site, maybe get in touch with them as a starting point. http://www.australianapprenticeships.gov.au/
Remember also that the course will be quite different here, so it could take longer to finish than he may expect.
To be honest, my opinion would be that he find a way to finish his course over there, or maybe look into trying to finish it in the UK.

Cheers Wendy,
Think he's made up his mind to come to Australia. The apprenticeship course and structure is different in Ireland from the UK so he would probably struggle to find a way to finish it there too. I'll tell him to check the apprenticeship website.
