Every person we supply is trained through Western Training, RTO 52919, to the requirements of the project and site they are placed on. The same training is available to contractors who want their existing crews ticketed or refreshed, delivered on or off site.
Matched to the role, the plant and the site each person is placed on.

Recruitment, payroll, compliance and mentoring are managed for the length of the training contract, with funding and subsidies available to host employers.

Our training is delivered by Western Training, our own registered training organisation, operating from the same offices as Connect Site Services. It was acquired for one purpose: to support the Connect Site Services workforce and the group’s training divisions. The trainers, assessors and placement team work side by side, share the same workforce and run to the same schedule.
That is what makes in house more than a phrase. A worker can be ticketed, verified and placed by people who sit in the same building, with the records held by the team that put them on site.
