Actually Doddy, they've been rising in all but the trades that are disappearing overseas or those where a better path is though a degree course. But of course you're ecome to you uninformed and unsupported opinion. OzOne of the three twins I welcome you to Crackerbox Palace.

Sure Ozliar. That's why the building trade is currently being slowed down due to a shortage of bricklayers, and the electrician who just finished the rough ins at my new house hasn't been able to get an apprentice for the last 12 months. Being a "plumber" you'd know all about this stuff, right? Oh, wait a minute, you never *did* an apprenticeship did you? You got your "qualifications" doing an adult trainee Tafe course. What does that qualify you to do? Change a tap washer? :) -- Regards, Noddy.

Change a tap washer? :) Actually Doddy...apprentice numbers have been rising in all but the trades that are disappearing overseas or where a better path is through a degree course.

So you keep saying, but that *doesn't* mean there aren't shortages in particular areas now, does it brains? -- Regards, Noddy.

Oh I agree wholeheartedly...There ARE shortages of trained people in some fields in some states. However YOU stated "Apprentice rates have been dwindling for years, and it seems mainly because so few kids are interested in trade jobs today." I thought a jet just went over, seems it may have been your goalposts shifting! OzOne of the three twins I welcome you to Crackerbox Palace. |
