RIP : End Of Days For The Green Loans Program

RIP - GLP Assessors
Today the 28th of February 2011, is the last day of the Labor Government's failed initiative Green Loans Program.

No doubt Peter Garrett will be sighing relief, as he can finally wash his hands of the whole debacle!

A Green program, where the Government & ABSA could not decide between themselves who was really responsible for over training on the numbers of assessors. Where the assessor was initially told 1000 assessors would be trained, only to see tsurnami of ABSA training before Christmas 2009! Creating a 10000 assessor overload. Nothing more than a grab for cash, by fat cat trainers!  In some cases these same trainners being ABSA board directors! With only 4400 of these assessors only being offered contracts!

Where a simple feedback loop involving both parties, would have stopped ABSA, the accreditation body for assessors, from over-training in numbers. Very easy, but for some reason too hard for both parties to get it right!

Was there a conflict of interest from the start where you have a board of trainers fattening their pockets? As assessors, we now know there was, as the stink was in all areas!

Some of us no doubt will be glad to wash our hands of working with the Government, with all it's failings that have been affecting our daily lives. Some us will be questioning whether during this whole debacle, ABSA has really stuck up for it's membership? To this day I question still whether I would back the bet that ABSA can holding itself high with a strong backbone, on my behalf! Making me feel as if it has done it's best, not whether it has only done the minimum? Personally I know what I feel of both parties. Both I say are to blame with a big conflict of interest within ABSA, where it is the only representative body for the assessor!

Enough is enough! I would like to wish all those assessors the best for their futures, whether in the Green world or not. I am aware many of you will steer clear of supposed green initiatives, due to this debacle costing you dearly!

This blog will be left live, for us all to see how not to create a Green initiative that is:

  • Badly designed.
  • Badly managed.
  • Open to fraud.
  • Has conflicts of interest.
  • Costing Aussie workers dearly

Good luck with whatever you do, from here on.

RIP GLP!
