General Information - Traineeships and Apprenticeships

» Course Description:

To cater for the increased demand for skilled workers in rural industries, Community College Gippsland delivers workplace based and campus based training across a wide range of specialisations.

Traineeships and apprenticeships can be undertaken part time or full time and include Australian school based apprenticeships.  On site visits are usually on a six week basis for approximately 1 hour duration.  Regular contact is maintained between visits by the trainer assessor.

Flexible arrangements are also available for workplaces with multiple trainees undertaking the same qualification.
