A tradie's guide
As part of our resources for apprentices, we've developed four publications that are also valuable to anyone engaged in training in building & construction.
Learning support
BCITO has contracts with several providers who have apprentice-specific tuition, courses and support groups. Which means we help our apprentices with free, and approved, learner support services.
Wellbeing support
BCITO provides full EAP (Employee Assistance Programme) support to all our employers and apprentices to create happier, healthier workplaces. And best of all - it’s free.
Employer resources
A series of learning modules, podcasts, videos, and other support resources and tools for apprentice employers.
Trades for everyone
BCITO Sports
A customised programme enabling athletes to build a long-term career in the trades.
Building Abilities

Building Pasifika

Building Women
