Very much so!

Chosen career now a PR was top be an electrician, do an apprenticeship.

Can't get an apprenticeship for love nor money.

Companies won't taker you on (IF you find one!) unless you've done a Cert 1 pre apprenticeship at TAFE.

TAFE are booked up for the Cert 1 till November, and then they're taking names for cancellations. Currently have 50 names on it! ...

As I say I couldn't find anyone to take me on after a few weeks of phoning around every Tom, Dick, and Harry!

Still, the government are offering incentives to mature people as QLD is crying out for trades! ...

Have you a web address for TAFE diploma courses? Would I have to play for one if I am a PR?
