  • The practicality of Labor’s electric car policy
    One month away from the election and energy & climate policy looks set to be front and centre.
    Labor have announced a 45% emissions reduction target but have excluded some of the big emitters like agriculture & steel so to achieve this they’ll need to focus on some other sections of the economy.
    This is where Labor’s policy of half of all new car sales being electric comes into play. 
    But just how viable will this be.
    With these recent policy announcements honing in on a ‘green’ future, Michael enlists the help of Trent Nikolic from Caradvice.com.au to explain some of the misinformation about charging an electric vehicle… and how long they actually take to charge.

  • Apprenticeships you’ve probably never heard of
    Just about everyone has heard of the traditional apprenticeships in building and construction, cooking and hairdressing… but did you know that apprenticeships and traineeships cover virtually every industry you can think of. 
     
    There are traineeships in the arts, gardening, farming, animals and the environment, sport and recreation, and IT and telecommunications.
     
    How about an IT traineeship in digital and interactive games or a qualification in bee keeping?
     
    Clinton Maynard is joined by Leeann Rayner, Operations Manager at Apprenticeships Matter to talk about industries that provide potential trainees & apprentices with the opportunity to earn while they learn in a career pathway suited to their skills, interests & passion.
