Building Futures provides school-based traineeship opportunities for secondary students across Tasmania in the building and construction industry.

HIA, in collaboration with Collins SBA, has created six half-hour modules. These will be offered through HIA’s online on-demand platform, designed to equip apprentices, VET construction students and young workers with essential financial literacy skills.

The NW Building Futures programme is concerned with growing the supply of building and construction trade apprentices over a 3-year period.

The LAPP2 project built on the success of LAPP1 by supporting job seekers in Launceston to gain apprenticeships.

The My Building Diversity project surveyed barriers to employment for multicultural youth in building and construction by interviewing employers, multicultural youth and apprenticeship providers.

This project supports young people from the Bridgewater, Derwent Valley and Glenorchy Local Government Areas through pre-apprenticeship training in building and construction, life skills coaching, and industry work experience.
