Under the Australian School-based Apprenticeship program, you can start your apprenticeship or traineeship whilst still at school. School-based Apprenticeships or traineeships are primarily designed for students in years 11 and 12, so that you can work for an employer, train towards a nationally recognised qualification and complete your secondary studies. As a school based apprentice or trainee, you'll be paid while being trained - and both your on-the-job and off-the-job training can contribute to your OP. What's more, since you'll already have a job and have started your training, you'll be qualified quicker! School-based Apprenticeships and traineeships are available in a range of industry areas from rural to retail; business to building; hospitality to hairdressing; and automotive to arts. Many traineeships can be completed during year 11 and 12, whilst apprenticeships continue after you finish school.
