Hosted by the Inland Rail Skills Academy, the sessions will help attendees learn about prospective workforce requirements and how to access Australian government support to take on apprentices and trainees.<\/p>\n

The sessions will allow attendees to build professional connections and network with employment service providers, local schools, federal and state agencies, Australian Apprenticeship Support Network providers, Regional Development Australia, and other related organisations.<\/p>\n

Stephen Jones, Inland Rail Director of Health, Safety and Environment, said that Inland Rail is deliviring real and lasting opportunities.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe encourage local businesses to come along, build your network and take steps to grow your workforce at these development events,” he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring construction, Inland Rail will be bustling with jobs and economic activity. We\u2019re also working to prepare communities for other project opportunities by helping to upskill local and First Nations businesses.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur workforce development events are just part of Inland Rail\u2019s commitment to communities where Australia\u2019s largest freight project is being built and operated.\u201d<\/p>\n

Event attendees will be presented with an update of Inland Rail\u2019s Albury to Illabo<\/a> project, as well as hear presentations from the Inland Rail Skills Academy and the Workforce Australia Local Jobs Program.<\/p>\n
