​Apprenticeships & traineeships

Australian Apprenticeships are a great way to get a head start in a chosen career or to retrain for the career you have always wanted.

They combine time at work with training and can be full-time, part-time or school-based to give you a nationally recognised qualification and the experience you need to get the job you want.

Australian Apprenticeships are available to anyone of working age with or without a secondary school certificate or other qualification. You can be a school-leaver, re-entering the workforce or an adult worker simply wishing to change careers.

Many Australian Apprenticeships are available through Group Training Organisations.

Assistance to Australian Apprentices with disabilities
Assistance to people with disabilities provides additional assistance to eligible employers who recruit an Australian Apprentice with disability.   Each form of assistance is intended to help Australian Apprentices with disability reach their full potential.

Assistance for employers of Australian Apprentices with disability includes Disabled Australian Apprentice Wage Support and Assistance for Tutorial Interpreter and Mentor Services.

Assistance for Tutorial, Interpreter and Mentor Services

Assistance for Tutorial, Interpreter and Mentor Services  is payable directly to the Registered Training Provider in respect of an Australian Apprentice with disability who has been assessed as eligible for Disabled Australian Apprentice Wage Support and who requires additional assistance with off-the-job training. An Australian Apprentice with disability may attract this form of assistance regardless of whether their employer receives Disabled Australian Apprentice Wage Support.

​Financial assistance available for tutorial services for an Australian Apprentice is $38.50 an hour up to a maximum of $5,500 annually, and for interpreter/mentor services, $38.50 an hour, up to a maximum of $5,500 annually.
​Disabled Australian Apprentice Wage Support is available to an employer who currently employs an Australian Apprentice with disability and has been assessed as a person requiring assistance. Evidence must be provided to support a claim for assistance.

As part of the Disabled Australian Apprentice Wage Support application process, Australian Apprentices with disability are required to undergo an Occupational Assessment which must be undertaken by a medical practitioner or registered psychologist. Effective from 1 January 2009, Australian Apprentices with disability who have a current and valid Job Capacity Assessment will not be required to undergo an Occupational Assessment when they choose to use the Job Capacity Assessment to support the Disabled Australian Apprentice Wage Support application.

​An employer of an Australian Apprentice with disability who satisfies the eligibility criteria may receive wage support of either $104.30 for a full-time Australian Apprentice, or pro-rata amount for part time Apprentices.
Group Training is an employment and training arrangement whereby an organisation employs apprentices and trainees under an Apprenticeship/Traineeship Training Contract and places them with host employers.  The Group Training Organisation oversees the quality of the training provided as well as providing additional care and support necessary to achieve the successful completion of the training contract.
