Acclaim Services

What is Acclaim’s role?

Acclaim is the Employer.  We have employed Apprentices and Trainees for over 25 years. Starting on the Sunshine Coast in 1984, our professional team has assisted many youths to get started and supported them through to successful completion.

Acclaim is a not-for-profit group training company, which was set up to facilitate training and apprenticeships (with a focus on young people), in order to see mutually beneficial outcomes for business, those in training and the wider community.

Acclaim is the actual employer of the trainee or apprentice and looks after all the paperwork and administration involved in employment. The trainee or apprentice does the actual work in a "host" business. The "host" has the responsibility to provide a safe and productive environment for our employees.

Acclaim protects and serves the Host Employers by selecting and matching applicants to their business and taking care of all of the typical employer responsibilities, for example: payroll, WorkCover, superannuation, lodgement all of the documentation relating to the Apprenticeship as well as being party to the Training Contract.

Acclaim coordinates the structured training with a training provider like TAFE, to ensure appropriate and cost effective skills and knowledge development.

Employment with Acclaim is "guaranteed" during the training period. This means if the host is unable to maintain the employment for a serious reason, Acclaim will find an alternative host business, in order for the training to be completed.

This has real benefits for all parties and assures positive outcomes.
