Australian Apprenticeships

 An Australian Apprenticeship offers practical work experience and formal training at the same time. Australian Apprenticeships are now offered in more than 500 occupations. They can provide new skills, a great start on an interesting career and a pay packet for the time spent on the job.

Australian Apprentices may qualify for financial support. With a Commonwealth Trade Learning Scholarship, for example, they get some tax-free payments while they’re qualifying for an occupation in an area of skills needs. And the Tools For Your Trade scheme gives eligible Australian Apprentices $800 to help them buy tools they might need for their new job.
