South Australia’s apprenticeship and traineeship system is underpinned by the South Australian Skills Act 2008 (the SAS Act), the South Australian Skills Regulations 2021 (the Regulations), and the South Australian Skills Standards (Standards).

These 14 Standards came into force on 1 July 2021. Compliance with the Standards is required, and a failure to comply with a provision of the Standards may result in compliance action being taken.
