10 Course Guide 2016 GAIN AN ADVANTAGE PRE-APPRENTICESHIPS A pre-apprenticeship enables you to experience what it s like to work in a trade, before you make a commitment to an apprenticeship. If you go on to an apprenticeship, the off-the-job training component of your apprenticeship training may be reduced. Completion of a pre-apprenticeship entitles you to a Certificate II qualification. Although you do not get paid during the course, work placement opportunities do form part of your training. Generally there are no entry requirements or experience needed to enrol in a pre-apprenticeship course. Pre-Apprenticeship Benefits: Gain an insight and understanding of your chosen trade career Basic trade skills An increased chance of employment as an apprentice (most employers are more inclined to take on new apprentices who already have industry knowledge and experience) Complete trade qualification faster (completion of a pre-apprenticeship may make you eligible to have your apprenticeship length reduced) Alex Metzke Metal Fabrication Apprentice I completed a pre-apprenticeship in metal fabrication while I was still at school which made it easier for me to go onto a certificate III apprenticeship. By completing the pre-apprenticeship program at Goldfields Institute I was offered five apprenticeships to choose from. Now I am really enjoying going to work every day to gain my trade qualification, and the fact that you never know what to expect. You can go from building something small one day to building something huge the next, it s always different and exciting. 10
