What is NECA GT?

ECA Training Pty Limited (trading as NECA Group Training) is a company incorporated in New South Wales and wholly owned by the National and Electrical Communications Association – New South Wales Chapter (NECA N.S.W.). The Company was formed on 28 January 1988 for the purpose of training electrical mechanical apprentices for the electrical contracting industry.

The Company is controlled by a Board of five Directors, each of whom is an electrical contractor, in business in his own right. A Group Scheme Manager, Apprentice Coordinator and Technical Field Officer are employed to operate the company and three administrative personnel assist them. Administrative personnel include an Administration Manager, Accounts Administrative Assistant and Human Resources Administrative Assistant.
