YCG DETAILS

The traineeship system before 16 April 2018, previously school-based trainees were governed by the Further Education and Training Act 2014. Under that Act, the Chief Executive identified an organization as being either a Group Training Organization or a Principal Employer Organization for engagement of trainees. The Youth Connections Group was not recognized by the Chief Executive as either of those two bodies and was therefore not a Labour Hire Organization.

Although Youth Connections Group was the employer and organized for trainees to be placed with host employers, it did not breach the Act as it never charged a host employer for the services of the provision of a trainee. As you can see from material provided, the Act changed effective 16 April 2018 with new definitions and therefore Youth Connections Group was not able to claim the same gap in the legislation as previously available to it.

There has been no "extension", "continuation of their Labour Hire status" as they were never a registered Labour Hire Provider. They cannot claim the beneficial aspects of the new Act which is why they are being replaced as the Employer, as they are no longer eligible to be employer of a trainee.

The web page we have linked you to from our website also enables you to ring the Department and ask questions accordingly, should you be receiving this information regarding their status and need additional information.

Hi BSG,

I was really pleased with completing ICT20115 - Certificate II in Information, Digital Media and Technology. I found the course well laid out, the trainer accessible and helpful. I want to eventually do Cert I+II in retail studies at BSG for employment purposes. I found the online environment/portal was easy to use and I know you guys get results that are achievable for students.

I live in Victoria, and there's almost no online Cert study programs here and my life makes it hard to attend classes. I really envy Queensland in this regard, why is everything up there? I highly recommend your courses to friends. And I strongly feel it is a practical hope for young adults who want a second try at education, or like me who want to re-skill.

I know you are a small group, I've enjoyed my interactions with trainers Karen and Robert.

I was really fortunate to find your IT course, because I really like computers but I'm too old school, so it forced me to update my knowledge and my computer!

Anyway all the best, and may your company grow from strength to strength. I think its inspiring that such a small company like BSG can offer so much at an affordable price and I hate buying expensive textbooks that I only end up throwing away!


Thanks for the experiences,
Al-Junaid

Testimonial from Sangeeta Bowly

It was a great opportunity for me to do Certificate III in Business Administration (Medical) course via BSG group. My coordinator, Karen Roemuss from day one really supported me all the way through my entire year, treating me as an individual and looking at my existing skills and work history with two of the largest and busiest hospitals in the UK; assessed gaps in my knowledge which related predominantly to Australian legislation and Industry skills and put me through the RPL process acknowledging the competencies I already had, so I would be able to get paid work. She explained and responded to my queries very calmly and precisely. In case of resubmission of work, she requested as to what was expected of me in terms of the right answer against the question / project. Karen has always been supportive and guided me to look at various avenues for paid work during my course studies.

BSG provides excellent client service and they have trainers who address the individuals learning needs and industry requirements. No matter who I have spoken to they have always been very understanding, supportive, and helpful. I would highly recommend BSG for further studies.

Message from Mr Barista Coffee

The Business Success group has given me the skills to finally reach my destiny of owning my own mobile coffee business.

I finished a three week course in small business with BSG and almost immediately started running my mobile coffee van with excellent favour and success.

BSG has given me the skills to go after my dreams and succeed in them.

I have serviced many schools, sporting events and even celebrities like Australian Olympic Volleyball Gold medalist Natalie Cook, Brisbane Roar Goalkeeper Michael Theo and many other sporting celebrities.

Thank you BSG for the opportunities I would recommend BSG to anyone who is willing to go after their dreams and make them a reality!

Roy Mignemi.
