An apprenticeship is a paid job where you learn real skills while working and studying toward a nationally recognised qualification at a certificate III level over 4 years.  

Apprentices work with experienced staff, gain hands-on experience, and earn a wage while they train. 

An apprenticeship can help you by giving you practical skills, confidence, and a pathway into a long-term career without needing to study full-time. It’s a great way to learn on the job, meet new people, and gain experience employers are looking for. 

Benefits of an apprenticeship include: 

  • Earning while you learn  

  • Gaining a nationally recognised qualification  

  • Building real workplace experience  

  • Learning from experienced mentors  

  • Creating career opportunities for the future  

  • Avoiding large student debt  

  • Developing confidence and independence
