Apprenticeships and traineeships

CQUniversity has a range of apprenticeship and traineeship courses available.

Apprenticeships and traineeships combine the benefits of structured training and paid employment. Undertaken on a full-time, part-time or school-based basis, apprenticeships and traineeships enable you to learn a trade or skill and receive a nationally accredited qualification.

Traineeships can be one to two years in a range of vocational areas, while apprenticeships usually last three to four years to become a qualified trades-person.

How do I secure an apprenticeship or traineeship?

• Traineeships and apprenticeships need to be secured with an employer before you can start your study. Your employer will then work with CQUniversity to pull together the training program that is right for you.
• To apply for an apprenticeship or traineeship, visit the Australian Government Australian Apprenticeships website and follow the steps to become an apprentice
