School Based Traineeships & Apprenticeships

At ÃÛÌÒÅ®º¢ we welcome student participation in School Based Traineeships and Apprenticeships (SBAT)

What is a School Based Traineeship or Apprenticeship?
A school-based traineeship is an agreement between the trainee and respective employer whereby the employer agrees to provide training in a specific industry, and the trainee agrees to work and learn, continuing their secondary schooling whilst being employed. Traineeships usually last between 9 and 48 months, depending on the vocation and certificate level undertaken. An example of a school attendance and work hours would be to attend school three to four days a week, depending on the school study program, and attend at least one day per week at work.

What are the benefits of a School based Traineeship/Apprenticeship?

  • Recruit keen young staff before they graduate from high school.
  • Employ and train a young person part-time in your business.
  • Meet the current and future skill needs of your business.
  • Give a young person realistic exposure to your industry.
