Students planning to gain an apprenticeship as a school leaver can apply through both Group Training Organisations and State Training Providers. It is advisable to treat your application for training just like an application to university; you need to list as your preferences and be prepared to travel because there are some courses that are highly competitive!

Remember to collect and retain your CareerLink Logbook, especially your Daily Training Schedules and Monitoring Reports. You need to keep evidence of your suitability for the career you have selected.
