The Letter of Intent for Apprenticeship is a crucial preliminary document used in New Zealand's vocational education and training system. It serves as the initial formal step in establishing an apprenticeship relationship between an employer and a prospective apprentice. This document is typically used after initial discussions and interviews but before the formal apprenticeship agreement is signed. It outlines key aspects such as the trade or profession, training provider details, proposed duration, basic employment terms, and next steps in the process. The letter must align with New Zealand's Education and Training Act 2020, Employment Relations Act 2000, and other relevant legislation governing apprenticeships and employment relationships. While not legally binding in all aspects, it demonstrates serious intent from both parties and helps ensure clear communication of expectations and commitments.
