TESTIMONIALS

‘‘The Site Office to Head Office has been instrumental in transforming my career as an electrician from managing three people, to a company with over 120 staff…the exposure into the business environment, the relationships with other industry professionals and the leadership training from the presenters better prepared me for growth within the company”.

WHAT IS THE NECA FOUNDATION?

NECA Foundation was established in the late 1990s by a group of NECA members and our Group Training Organisation, NECA Electrical Apprenticeships (formerly NECA Group Training) and the generous industry wholesalers and manufacturers. It was set up to encourage the next generation of our industry to further their education. In 2016 the Foundation was incorporated and acquired Charity and Not-for-Profit status, with both the ACNC and ATO, and NECA as the Foundation’s sole member. All future donations will receive a Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) status, and donors can be assured that their donations are used on scholarships according to the rules of the fund.
