ELECTRICAL TRADES UNION ETU: Dodgy RTOs ripping off migrant and other workers through fake qualifications - Recently come across cases where dodgy Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) are ripping off migrant and other workers
Some dodgy RTOs have been providing Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) instead of instructing these workers to follow the necessary TRA program. Usually coming from overseas, the workers are paying upwards of $20-30K for a fake qualification that doesn’t meet the requirements to get an electrical licence, so they are left with nothing.
There have also been reports of Australian workers who had partly completed an apprenticeship being sucked into paying for fake qualifications by these RTOs. Paying for electrician qualifications at a dodgy RTO is NOT a pathway to an electrical licence.
