NT has a rise in Apprenticeships

The number of Territorians taking up apprenticeships and traineeships this year has nearly doubled in the past three months. The Chief Minister Paul Henderson said 698 young Territorians had begun apprenticeships in mid-May - that figure has now nearly doubled to 1305. "We are on track to meet our election target of 10,000 new apprenticeships and traineeships over four years," Mr Henderson said. Recruiting more apprentices will result in more jobs, economic stability and prosperity for the Territory.
