School-based
apprenticeships and traineeships
School-based apprenticeships and traineeships allow students, typically
years 11 and 12, to study for their Senior Certificate or equivalent
while at the same time undertaking government approved and accredited
training qualifications as paid employees.
Full-time apprentice or trainee
Full-time apprentices and trainees work and train full-time, usually
from 36 to 38 hours a week.
Traineeships vary in length from 12 months to three years to complete.
With the introduction of expected durations that set a target for early
completions, it is likely that some apprenticeships could be completed
faster than this.
ORCA offers user choice funded traineeships to eligible Queensland
residents.
