QuestionView source ↗
According to the Department of Training and Workforce Development’s site, courses available through TAFE for training in the retail sector indicate that only Certificate II in Retail - Food Processing (Pre-Apprenticeship - Retail Baking) is available in Semester 1 in 2011 and that Certificates I and III in Retail - Food Processing (Baking – Bread, Cake and Pastry or Combined), are not available Semester 1 in 2011. Therefore, I ask -
(1) If, as indicated in the last tender under the Productivity Places Program, lower Certificates will not be funded in the 2011 round of funding under this program, where and how will those wishing to enter this field obtain the necessary training if these courses are not available through TAFE?
(2) How many places are available through TAFE for Certificate II in Retail - Food Processing?
