fast track? completing your electrical capstone used to be fast but it's now taking 6+months and I haven't failed anything. Apparently I have 2 months left of approvals.

I’m a qualify electrician here in NZ. Anyone in Australia looking for employees? I assume many tradies do come up here. So might aswel ask.

The government shouldn’t charge tax for overtime hours. That will ease shortage at least by some percentage

We need a national builder that directly hires apprentices along with qualified tradies to build more social housing that anyone can access - like in Vienna. Plenty of apprentices looking for jobs but they’re not getting hired.

The only option is an apprenticeship subsidy to employers to pay the apprentices more. That’s the issues kids want money now not in 3 yrs. Maybe a completion scheme should be set up.
