Calling Students in Years 10 and 11

A school-based pre-apprenticeship is a great way for students in Years 11 and 12 to work towards a trade qualification.

This program is fully funded either by the Construction Training Fund or the Department of Training and Workforce Development, so there is no course fee charged to the student. Some schools may charge a training centre fee. Please speak with the respective VET Coordinator for further details. 

Applications for the 2025 school-based pre-apprenticeship program have now closed.
