BENEFITS FOR MY CHILD
Earn While You Learn
From day one, your child is paid to work while completing their qualification. Instead of racking up study loans, they’re building savings and learning how to manage money. Many trades also offer allowances to cover tools, travel, or essential safety gear.
For apprentices under VACC, TAFE fees are covered, and full-time apprentices even receive a professional starter tool kit they get to keep once qualified.
Career Growth and Security
Automotive Apprenticeships provide both immediate job opportunities and long-term career options. While your child gains hands-on experience and immediate income, they are also securing qualifications and skills that remain valuable for life. Apprenticeships offer stability, clear progression, and flexibility, making them one of the most reliable pathways into long-term employment.
Job Security
Trades are linked to industries that Australia relies on every day - from automotive and infrastructure to mechanical repair. That means apprentices who complete their training are highly employable and often stay on with the same host employer.
Clear Pathways
Apprenticeships don’t end at qualification. Graduates can step into roles like workshop supervisor, diagnostic technician, or even business owner. There’s a clear ladder for those who want to climb higher.
Future-Proof Skills
Qualifications are nationally recognised, so apprentices can take their skills anywhere in Australia. Whether moving interstate or switching into related industries, their trade opens doors that remain valuable throughout their career.
Opportunities to Upskill and Study Further
Completing an apprenticeship is the first step, not the last. Many go on to advanced diplomas, management training, or even university-level study later in their career. With qualifications that are recognised nationwide, apprentices have the flexibility to expand into leadership roles or explore opportunities across different regions and industries.
