Steps to an Australian Apprenticeship (Posted: 21/05/2020)
Australian Apprenticeships, which include both apprenticeships and traineeships, involve training in a formal qualification and paid employment. It can be difficult knowing what types of apprenticeships and traineeships are out there, and how to find them.The Australian Apprenticeships and Traineeships Information Service has developed the Steps to an Australian Apprenticeship, which breaks up the process of finding an apprenticeship or traineeship into 4 easy steps: Research, Preparation, Job Hunting and Sign Up.
| These steps, when followed, can make the task of getting an apprenticeship or traineeship less daunting, and more achievable. If you would like to learn more about each step, plus heaps more useful information and resources, visit AAPathways.com.au/steps |
 |
Research | Researching your options is an important step to take before you start making career and training decisions. This will help you make up your mind about what industries and occupations you are interested in working in. |
 |
Preparation | Now that you’ve done your research and know which apprenticeship or traineeship you want to do, the next step is to prepare yourself for the job! Consider things like doing a pre-apprenticeship, having a look at wage information, and familiarising yourself with working conditions. |
 |
Job Hunting | There are many ways to find an apprenticeship or traineeship job. Think about contacting employers you already know, using job search sites or registering with a Group Training Organisation. Don't stick to just one method, try them all! |
 |
Sign Up | Every Australian Apprentice must be signed up into a formal training contract shortly after they are employed. To organise a sign up, the employer will need to contact an Australian Apprenticeship Support Network provider, who are funded by the Australian Government.

Literacy and Numeracy Skills for Australian Apprenticeships & Traineeships (Posted: 12/05/2020)
When starting an apprenticeship or traineeship, you won’t be expected to have specific skills and experience in the industry – you learn this on the job and through your training. However, this doesn’t mean you don’t need any skills at all before starting!Literacy and numeracy skills are important for everyone, but they are sometimes underrated by people looking at apprenticeships and traineeships. The training for Australian Apprenticeships requires both literacy and numeracy, but in ways that are specific to your job.
For example, someone starting a traineeship in retail will need to be able to deal with money, but in carpentry you will need to understand lengths and angles. Different occupations might require different types of literacy numeracy skills. Across all areas, reading, writing and verbal communication will be important as you learn your job.
The Australian Apprenticeships and Traineeships Information Service have developed short online quizzes to help you self-assess your literacy and numeracy skills. The questions are related to an industry you might be looking to do an apprenticeship or traineeship in. For example, you will get different questions depending on whether you do the Animal Care and Management quiz, compared to the Electrotechnology quiz.
These quizzes will help you understand the types of literacy and numeracy skills you might need when starting an apprenticeship or traineeship in the industry you choose. Once you finish the quiz you will see what questions you got right and wrong, and your score. You will also get information about what your next steps might be. This could include focusing on your literacy and numeracy skills or starting job hunting.
To explore these different tests and quizzes go to: aapathways.com.au/lnq or to your School Careers Website > Post School Options > Apprenticeships & Traineeships
