2026 ATEC Training Awards & Graduation Ceremony Sponsors

Posted on July 30, 2025
ATEC’s annual Training Awards evening is the premier event for ATEC’s trade apprentices where the achievements of host employers, school and workplace apprentices are publicly recognised and celebrated. The Awards ceremony includes 14 categories (23 awards) with the aim of acknowledging ATEC’s highest achievers academically, overall and in special categories across carpentry, mechanical, fabrication and electrical apprenticeships.
The drive and determination of some of our future industry leaders in the South Australian construction and manufacturing industry is evident at ATEC’s Awards evening, and we’re thrilled to invite you to be a part of this event.
Recognising the hard work and determination of our apprentices and the organisations that support them goes a long way to bolstering confidence and continued efforts.
A special thank you is extended to all sponsors for their ongoing support and partnership in recognising and celebrating the achievements of apprentices and employers.
Major Sponsor
SYC
At SYC, we believe everyone should have the opportunity to succeed. As a non-profit organisation, we invest back into the Australian community, supporting tens of thousands of people each year to create a life without disadvantage, build sustainable independence, and achieve wellbeing in all areas of life.
Founded in 1958 in Adelaide, South Australia, SYC began with a focus on supporting young people experiencing disadvantage. Over the past three decades, we’ve expanded our reach, providing services to people of all ages throughout Australia in housing, education, employment, justice, and disability support.
A cornerstone of SYC’s mission is our role as an Apprentice Connect Australia Provider. Our apprenticeship services are built on a deep understanding of the individuals we support and the industries we partner with. Our expert team works closely with both apprentices and employers, offering tailored support to ensure both parties' long-term success.
What sets us apart is our commitment to seeing the whole person. We take the time to understand each apprentice’s background, aspirations, and challenges, ensuring that the apprenticeship aligns not only with their skills but also their personal circumstances. This approach extends to our work with employers. We know businesses need apprentices who are qualified, motivated, and ready to contribute. By partnering with SYC, employers gain access to a team that works alongside them to recruit and develop apprentices who match their specific business needs, fostering a workforce that drives success.
When you partner with SYC, you’re not just investing in your business—you’re helping to create lasting change in the lives of some of our community's most vulnerable members. As a non-profit, we reinvest in initiatives that address critical social issues, including housing insecurity. Through our safe, affordable housing programs for young people and vital services at our youth hub, The Foundry, we provide essential support to those who need it most.
By choosing to work with SYC, you’re helping create lasting change. Our commitment to supporting individuals and fostering community wellbeing drives us to deliver sustainable, positive outcomes for all involved.
