One of the most important Marketing tools that RITE uses is the very experienced RITE PR personnel that constantly travel the roads attending Field days, Careers days, Careers Expo’s and liaising with prospective parents, trainee’s and new schools, interviews and signups.
The standard of training and assessment RITE offers along with the continued back up support to Trainee’s, Parents, Schools etc is meeting the expectations of not only the Host Employer but the rural industry as a whole.
RITE offers these innovative training programs, which allows employers to assist with the training of their current trainees to develop vital beef industry skills. Like apprenticeships, the traineeship system offers security of employment and the training is also included while earning an income.
The skills obtained throughout the traineeship allow for those completing it to move into a number of other industries or progress to management roles within the agricultural industry.
The opportunities for graduates are endless, and your career can branch into directions such as Vet Nursing, Station Manager, Research and Sciences, Government Departments, Consultancy, Stock and Station Agents and Peak Bodies such as Ag Force, Mining Industry and various other industries.
