    What is it like to be an apprentice or trainee?

    For those of you seeking an apprenticeship, you may be wondering what it really means to be a trainee or an apprentice.

    Simply put, an apprenticeship or traineeship is a training contract between an employer and an employee in which the apprentice or trainee learns the skills needed for a particular occupation or trade.

    Apprenticeships or traineeships are arranged on a full-time or part-time basis. They are an excellent stepping stone to starting a career in an industry you want to work in.

    The key things to remember are that through an apprentice or trainee program, you will learn valuable, nationally recognised job skills; get paid while learning; and combine formal training from a TAFE or training provider with workplace-based training.
