Aussie Painters Network (APN) exists to strengthen the painting and decorating industry by supporting the people who power it.
We work alongside business owners, apprentices, schools, and training partners to create clear, supported pathways into the trade, while helping painting businesses build reliable, skilled teams.
This is not about short-term placements or ticking boxes. It is about long-term careers, stronger businesses, and a better industry.
We support apprentices throughout their training journey by working closely with Registered Training Organisations (RTOs), employers, and supervisors to ensure apprentices are work-ready, supported, and progressing.
Our focus is on practical, on-the-job skill development, ongoing engagement and retention, clear communication between apprentices, employers, and trainers, and reducing compliance confusion for businesses.
We help bridge the gap between training and the realities of running a painting business.
Running a painting business is demanding. Managing apprentices, training requirements, and workforce growth can quickly become overwhelming.
Aussie Painters Network supports business owners by helping source suitable apprentices and candidates, supporting compliance and training processes, reducing administrative pressure, providing access to industry-specific tools and systems, and strengthening retention and workforce stability.
We work with you as a partner, not just a service provider, to help your business grow sustainably.
