Hutchies Training provides pre-employment, pre-apprenticeship, apprenticeship, and short courses specifically for the construction industry.
We are an enterprise-based nationally registered training organisation (RTO). Sounds a bit fancy, right? It just means we live within our parent company, Hutchinson Builders. We don’t do training outside the industry or beyond our speciality. We train the best constructors in the industry and focus on providing practical, real-life experiences for our students.
Hutchies has been building the structures in which Australians live, work, study, shop and play since 1912. From our early beginnings, we have grown into a dynamic and diverse construction company, delivering sophisticated projects across a comprehensive portfolio.
As Australia's largest privately owned construction company, our business capability and complexity is well beyond that of a ‘Mum and Dad’ builder, but our core values remain very much embedded in the idea of investing in relationships, taking care of each other and the community, and working towards a common goal. We pride ourselves on working with you as a true construction partner.
We are a ‘safe pair of hands’ who will guide you through the construction process, navigating complex building codes and regulations, while remaining open and transparent. Hutchies has an industry reputation for decency and fair play – these characteristics combined with our demonstrated building capability and $390M+ strong balance sheet, underpin our company’s performance.
We have a national presence across more urban and regional centres of Australia's east and central coasts. Our philosophy is to follow our clients' needs, building not just in big cities but also in the most remote regions of Australia.
Learn the essentials of modern carpentry with Hutchies Training. Through a combination of on-the-job, classroom, and online training, you will develop the skills and knowledge to work in residential, commercial and industrial environments. There are 34 units to complete, which are grouped together as practical tasks that you would typically perform on a live construction site. Our online learning management system allows you to study theory elements at times that suit you. By the end of your apprenticeship, you will be able to construct, install, finish and repair a range of structures and fixtures.
