Tips for Getting a Traineeship or Apprenticeship

These tips are from Rob Palmer, Careers Counsellor at South Metro TAFE

  1. Ask for a work placement while still at school. Schools will cover your insurance whilst on WPL.  When you leave school, you can get insurance cover from Volunteering WA but the range of volunteering work is limited.
  2. Demonstrate what a great employee you are.
  3. Get information from a Jobs and Skills Centre on what subsidies employers can get.
  4. Tell the potential employer what subsidies they can get and ask if they will take you on.
  5. If they won’t take you on, ask if they know anyone else who may be in a position to help you/take you on.

SEEK.COM.AU has many apprenticeships available. Put Kalamunda into the search bar and you will find local business and apprenticeships close to home.
