MTA Queensland (MTAQ) says applications for its VET Trainer Scholarship are now open!
Launched back in 2021 to help address the industry’s skill shortage, the VET Trainer Scholarship provides two technicians with the opportunity to undertake a Certificate IV in Training and Assessment (TAE40122), valued at more than $3,000.
Designed to teach the skills and knowledge required to deliver training in the vocational education and training (VET) sector, participants will learn skills in designing, conducting, and assessing, while also receiving knowledge on how to facilitate and evaluate the impacts of various learning programs.
In each round, one female and one male candidate will have the chance to undertake the sought-after course and take the next step in their career.
“MTA Queensland is extremely proud to continue offering our VET Trainer scholarship program in 2024. These scholarships provide a fantastic opportunity for industry professionals to grow their knowledge and skill set,” MTA Group chief executive Rod Camm says.
The scholarship is open to all Queensland-based, trade-qualified automotive professionals who possess at least 5-years post-apprenticeship experience in any of the following automotive areas – Light Vehicle, Heavy Vehicle, Auto Electrical, Motorcycle, Mobile Plant, Agricultural, Parts Interpreting, Outdoor Power Equipment, Automotive Body Repair & Refinishing, and Underbody.
