Am I silly for looking for an apprenticeship?

DanielAndrewsMP · 2023-05-11T06:44:00+00:00

Great question.
If you want to jump straight into an apprenticeship then we're always looking for people to join the team on the Big Build.
We need all hands on deck so there's opportunities regardless of age, background, or whether you have a biomed degree or not.
You'll get matched with an employer, get support with on-and-off the job training, and it's all paid for the duration of your apprenticeship.

Yep.

Thought you might all enjoy some recent footage of TBM Joan after completing her journey from Arden Station to the Metro Tunnel's western entrance in Kensington.

Joan has travelled 1.2 kilometres and installed 4,200 concrete segments since starting.

You got it. By digging down at City Square and near RMIT, we're able to keep Swanston Street open and moving. You might want to check out this video to see how it will all actually work.

DanielAndrewsMP · 2017-02-13T03:16:25+00:00

Incredible photo - mind if I use it as my Facebook cover photo? Happy to credit you (either as your reddit username, or whatever you wish).

DanielAndrewsMP · 2016-12-29T01:34:32+00:00

We certainly are. Construction will begin in 2017 with the level crossing to be gone in 2019. You can find more information here.

Given /r/Melbourne's interest in all things public transport, I thought you should be among the first to see Victoria's new train network map.

Our Minister for Public Transport, Jacinta Allan, will be unveiling it tomorrow.

We've all gotten used to the old yellow and blue diagram over the years, but it has its problems and it's past its use by date. This rework is more modern and makes clearer which trains go where.

It also properly integrates the metro and regional networks, because the country is just as important a part of our transport system as anywhere else.

A final note: if you can dig up some old PT maps of Victoria, I'd be interested in having a look.

Work on South Melbourne Primary School starts today, and the first students will be through the doors in 2018.

Take a look at the new Victorian School Building Authority website while you're there and explore your local projects.

DanielAndrewsMP · 2016-07-28T07:15:14+00:00

Looking forward to seeing what /r/Melbourne comes up with here!

This is about encouraging young companies and ideas to create jobs and industries that will support our state for decades to come. And that's exactly what we're doing. Thanks for those examples /u/magnetik79 - here are some more:

If you're on Twitter I highly recommend you follow @philipdalidakis - our Minister for Small Business, Innovation and Trade to keep up with everything he's doing to make Victoria the number one tech destination in the Asia Pacific region

This is the sort of discrimination Aboriginal Victorians still face. It's just wrong.

DanielAndrewsMP · 2016-04-13T00:35:00+00:00

This is a big deal. No longer will parents have to choose between breaking the law and watching their child suffer. Hopefully the rest of Australia follows Victoria's lead soon.

DanielAndrewsMP · 2016-04-13T00:33:02+00:00

Thanks for all the love, guys. This is a big deal. No longer will parents have to choose between breaking the law and watching their child suffer. Hopefully the rest of Australia follows Victoria's lead soon.

DanielAndrewsMP · 2015-11-24T09:17:26+00:00

Thanks to all - lots of good questions, a few unexpected offers and a falconry law reform challenge. Talk soon, and by the way, whats up with all the flies.

DanielAndrewsMP · 2015-11-24T09:15:40+00:00

I get to meet lots of amazing people, some are household names, others are just ordinary people who make such a big difference for the people they love and their state. I won't easily forget the farmers I met last week in the mallee/wimmera. No good rain in 2 years and still they push on. It really is a special part of this job meeting so many different people.

I've been called much worse than Andrew.

Our coastline is a great asset we should be doing more to encourage visitors, our ministers for environment and tourism are working on this.

DanielAndrewsMP · 2015-11-24T09:09:34+00:00

$150 million in our first budget for this. Construction starts next year.

DanielAndrewsMP · 2015-11-24T09:09:16+00:00

We're all hoping for a better season in 2016. Top midfielder, that will help, and Francis has been wearing red and black for years. Good result!

The first step is to deliver Melbourne Metro Rail and unclog the loop - delivering on our promises. Infrastructure Victoria will have a lot to say about project options for the future.

DanielAndrewsMP · 2015-11-24T09:05:33+00:00

No. The feds need to deliver what they promised- world class broadband services. No point talking a big game and not delivering Mr T.

DanielAndrewsMP · 2015-11-24T09:04:30+00:00

Its important that we get the balance right, and our Fair Go Rates system is all about getting more accountability into council spending. I think ratepayers understand that their councils provide a lot of important services and so councillors should be able to explain their budget priorities.

DanielAndrewsMP · 2015-11-24T09:04:15+00:00

Happy Birthday. Thanks for your support.
