What traineeships are available?

Dependent on Government funding priorities, traineeships may be available in:

• Certificate IV in Financial Services
• Certificate IV in Business Administration
• Certificate IV in Information Technology

Task range varies according to the level of Traineeship and the particular organisational structure of the Host Company.

• Cert IV in Financial Services: You will develop skills in financial administration, customer service, communication skills and accounting procedures. These skills can lead to employment opportunities in a variety of finance companies, accounting firms and other commercial companies.
• Cert IV in Business Administration: You will learn administrative skills such as mail and record handling, phone and reception, computer skills, customer service, book keeping and team work. These skills can lead to employment opportunities in office work in a wide range of industries such as Legal, Finance & Insurance, Technology, Marketing and more.

What is the expected workload?

As a trainee you will work full time on-site at a host company including studies of three hours per week.

Like all vocational employment training, successful completion depends on demonstrating your competency at the work place. You will be required to complete a number of "units of competency" but you won't need to attend lectures or read a lot of theory that doesn't relate to your work and career.

You select the range of competencies (as per qualification requirements) you wish to attain and then learn and demonstrate these competencies in the workplace. The heart of the program is competency-based assessment. The emphasis is on giving you opportunities to demonstrate your competence. As a vocational "competency based" qualification, the focus is on your ability to apply your workplace knowledge to the issues raised in the study material, on the application of your practical work experience and problem solving.

As long as the Government funding is available for the course you have selected, as a trainee you pay nothing. You may have to pay for the course tuition fee if the course is not funded by the Government which we will let you know when you apply.
