Case study: WesTrac Leadership Program targets apprentice supervisors

Leading Australian CAT equipment provider – WesTrac – has again turned to Forsythes Training. This time to help develop and deliver a pilot training program for its NSW and ACT frontline supervisors of apprentices and tradespeople.

The program supports the dual objectives of driving completion and retention of trainees and apprentices and making the commitment to career pathways a sustainable business practice.

Its been customised and contextualised to WesTrac’s competency framework, policies and procedures to incorporate key learning activities around developing people and teams, driving performance and accountability and living WesTrac’s values.

 New skills for Liddell Coal workers as mine set to close

With Liddell Coal Mine scheduled to close in August 2023, Forsythes Training has delivered a range of skills training to support more than 50 employees to transition in the workplace to secure future employment. We worked with Training Services NSW and the site’s training department and management to identify training to meet the needs of employees. Participants completed courses in TAE40116, Project Management Practice, WHS and Leadership & Management.
