About the program 

Training Services NSW has partnered with ClubsNSW on a program to promote jobs, skills and the sector. 

The Regional Club Training Employment Program (RCTEP) provides fee-free Part Qualifications training. This is for workers or job seekers to get skills needed by clubs in regional and rural NSW.  

RCTEP training provides  

  • career entry pathways, employment and career progression in the clubs sector  

  • skills employers need.  

At least 50% of trained participants get employment with a club or related employer in 4 months of completing training.  

Get involved if you're an employer  

Do you have workforce skills shortages at your club? To access RCTEP training contact your nearest Training Services NSW regional office on 13 28 11.
