Learn how traineeships combine paid work, structured training, and government support to help you gain real-world skills and recognised qualifications.
A traineeship is a formal training arrangement that combines structured training towards a nationally recognised qualification with paid employment, on-the-job learning, and government support through funding subsidies and incentives. Traineeships typically run for 12-24 months depending on the qualification and can be undertaken full-time or part-time to suit your circumstances. The best part? You’ll earn a wage while gaining the skills and credentials employers value.
