Industry Training Act 1992

The Industry Training Act says that any agreement between an employer and employee about training is part of their employment agreement. Agreements about training are therefore enforceable under the Employment Relations Act 2000. This gives them greater weight.

The Industry Training Act established the Education and Training Support Agency Board, which issues certificates of success to trainees in various occupations.

The Modern Apprenticeship Training Act 2002 is designed to encourage young people aged between 16 and 22 to complete apprenticeship training.
