School-based Apprenticeships and Traineeships allow Year 11 and 12 students to achieve a Senior Certificate while they train in an industry area to achieve nationally recognised vocational education and training qualifications.

School-based traineeships may be completed during the two years of senior schooling. School-based apprenticeships can start during their senior schooling years and then be transferred to full-time or part-time at the end of Year 12.

To become a school-based apprentice/trainee with CTC, you will need to satisfy the following:

• Be a school student in Year 11 or 12
• Be sure about your goals and career plans before signing up
• Be willing to commit to the term of the apprenticeship or traineeship
• Understand that this is a "real" apprenticeship, with the same responsibilities as a full-time apprenticeship
