MRAEL’s History

MRAEL began business in 1985, initially as a small Group Training Organisation based in Mackay, Central Queensland, employing apprentices and trainees and working with local businesses to provide training opportunities. In the more than 35 years since then, we have grown considerably to become a ‘one-solution’ provider of education, training, and employment services with an extensive operating footprint across Queensland and into New South Wales.

In our more than three decades of business, we have remained a proudly not-for-profit organisation and firmly committed to creating new apprenticeship opportunities, providing training, and connecting people and businesses to strengthen the future, and the sustainable development, of the workforce.
