School-based apprenticeships and traineeships provide a pathway for Territory students to successfully transition from school to work.
The apprenticeships and traineeships aim to provide students with an increased ability to perform in the workplace, leading to increased career choices and opportunities to transition from school to full-time apprenticeships, employment or further education and training.
They also aim to:
increase nationally recognised qualification attainment that translates to Northern Territory Certificate of Education (NTCE) outcomes
improve the retention of students at the senior school level
increase completion of senior secondary schooling.
Employers must comply with all legal, regulatory and policy requirements in relation to the employment of the students. They must also assist the student to balance study, work and training commitments and develop cultural and diversity awareness in the workplace.
