How does it work?

What is a Traineeship?

A traineeship is on-the-job training with an employer, while you study and get paid – with a focus on hands-on practical learning over academic theory.

It’s perfect if you want to get a professional, industry-led qualification at the same time as real-world work experience. This can be full-time or part-time, normally over one or two years.

During your training you will be mentored by a supervisor who makes sure you learn all the right skills.

There are so many reasons why an apprenticeship or traineeship could be right for you, including:

  • Experience and new skills while you get paid
  • Valuable hands-on training in the workplace
  • Nationally recognised qualification
  • Flexible, with full or part time study options
  • Same conditions and benefits as other employees
  • No debt to worry about after you qualify

 

Government Funded for:

  • Australian citizens
  • Those employed as Permanent Part Time (PPT) or Full Time (FT) in an aged care, homecare or disability support organisation.
  • Have worked a regular pattern of hours on an ongoing basis for at least the last 6 months of their first 12 months of employment
  • Works a minimum of 20 hours per week
  • Note: Enrolment is subject to a Traineeship eligibility check

Why consider a Permanent Part Time position?

Part-time employees get the same minimum entitlements as a full-time employee, but on a pro- rata basis. A part time employee:

  • Works set hours and days each week
  • Great work-life balance
  • Ongoing employment
  • Additional shifts
  • Personal or sick leave
  • Annual leave
  • Long service leave
  • Parental leave
  • Public holidays
  • Paid notice upon termination
  • Community service leave
  • 10 days paid family and domestic violence leave. This isn’t pro-rated.
  •  

Who is a casual employee? A casual employee:

  • No guaranteed hours of work per week
  • Works irregular hours
  • Can end employment without giving notice
  • No job security
  • Roster provided at the last minute
  • Unable to make other plans and commitments
  • Unpaid carer’s leave
  • They don’t get sick leave
