Important information that you need to know about changes to, and satisfactory completion of your contract.
Information about, and the forms you will need to make changes to your apprenticeship or traineeship
Probationary periods are built into training contracts as a way of allowing trainees, apprentices and their employers to withdraw from the apprenticeship or traineeship if either you or your employer decide it is not for you.
You may request a suspension to your apprenticeship or traineeship for reasons such as non-work related injury or illness (beyond normal sick leave provisions), or personal reasons, such as travel overseas or birth of a child.
Only Trainee and Apprenticeship Services (TAS) can terminate a Training Contract. TAS will generally approve a termination application if both the employer and the apprentice/trainee agree to the termination.
Sometimes there is a need to change employers while a training contract is under way. This may be because the business is sold to someone else – which means your training contract goes to the new employer.
If you were initially employed under a school-based apprenticeship or traineeship and have left school, or are no longer enrolled in SACE, you will need to change your contract.
If your part-time arrangement (number of hours in work and training) needs to change, this change needs to be reflected on your training contract as it affects the term or duration of the training.
You and your employer may decide that it is necessary to change your training provider. It might be that the provider hasn't been offering the service expected, or that mid-way through the term of the contract, they stop delivering the qualification in South Australia.
