Tools for your Trade - Shearers and Tree Surgeons still eligible

Despite the removal of eligibility for agriculture and horticulture trades under the Tools For Your Trade initiative, employers of Australian Apprentices undertaking their Australian Apprenticeship as a Shearer or Tree Surgeon (Arborist) will remain eligible, as these trades are still listed on the National Skills Needs List.

As such, registered tool suppliers may continue to sell appropriate trade tools to employers/Australian Apprentices in these trades.
