Who we are
MTC Australia is a not-for-profit organisation that has been delivering high quality education and training programs to the Greater Sydney region for more than 30 years. We work closely with employers to understand their business and identify their training needs, ensuring we can help them achieve their organisational goals.
Employer Workplace Training
Under the Foundation Skills for Your Future program, we offer fully funded training solutions to organisations wishing to enhance the LLND skills of their employees.
We will work closely with your organisation to identify skill and training gaps, and develop accredited and/or non-accredited, tailored, on-site training for your eligible employees, helping you:
- Increase the productivity of your workforce through building their language and literacy skills, reducing potential errors and miscommunication.
- Improve WHS compliance and lower safety risks through enhanced employee literacy and numeracy skills.
- Grow your staff retention rates through improved communication and collaboration between your employees.
- Equip your employees with the necessary digital skills to prepare them for technological advancements within your field.
- Boost stakeholder satisfaction by teaching your employees how to communicate clearly and effectively when writing or speaking.
- Reduce your training costs.
Personalised Training
Eligible individuals wanting to improve their writing, speaking, numeracy or computer skills are able to enrol in free, personalised training under the Foundation Skills for Your Future program.
MTC will work with participants to identify their training needs and help build a tailored program designed to improve their competency (if currently employed) or employability (if current unemployed). Our team of expert trainers will provide flexible training and support these participants every step of the way, helping them achieve their learning and/or employment goals.
