Become an apprentice or trainee

Can I start my training in high school?

As an apprentice or trainee you may be entitled to Australian Government incentives such as Living Away From Home Allowance, Support for Mid Career Apprentices, Wage Top Up or the Commonwealth Trade Learning Scholarship.

There are also lots of other financial incentives provided by government: clothing allowances, free toolkits, travel concessions — even rebates on your car registration — to name just a few.
