Traineeships
Traineeships combine practical experience at work with structured training to achieve accredited qualifications. Traineeships are available for both new and existing full time and part time employees. Trainees will have entered a contract with their employer to gain hands-on skills and work experience while earning a wage. Traineeships are usually in non-trade related areas and last for 12 months or more. The training requirements are part of your training plan which is negotiated between your employer, you, and ABS as your registered training organisation (RTO).
Traineeships are competency based which means you can complete your training earlier if you can show you have reached the skill levels required for your industry. People of all ages can undertake traineeships, and most can be undertaken on a full-time or part-time basis. There are a range of traineeships offered by ABS from which to choose.
