CVGT Employment Bendigo

About

CVGT Employment has a proud history of being a not-for-profit, for-purpose employment services provider. We are Australia-owned and doubly proud to say we are person-centric and community focused. For 40 years we have been helping individuals secure sustainable and meaningful work, and employers secure the right staff. Our story is quite unique. We formed in 1983 when councils surrounding Bendigo responded to a survey on youth unemployment skill shortages. Young people needed to be actively employed while learning the trade skills for their chosen fields. We were initially known as Central Victoria Group Apprenticeship Scheme. We had humble beginnings, employing one person, who rode a bicycle around Bendigo to monitor the progress of 12 apprentices. Since then, the business has grown from strength to strength. Over time our expertise brought expansion into other regions and other employment programs; in 2012 our name changed to CVGT Australia. From July 2022, we evolved again to become CVGT Employment. Today, we employ more than 400 people in a diverse range of employment programs and specialties across more than 120 locations in New South Wales, Tasmania and Victoria; and continue to meet community needs and expectations for sustainable employment and economic activity.
