Pursue a career in the construction industry
Skill Hire currently have a pre-apprenticeship program running with 15 students. All students came to us having either previously taken part in a Try-A-Trade, had friends enrolled in the VETiS program or had seen our flyers at a recent expo. All students share a common interest, they want to pursue a career in the construction industry but need to gain a basic understanding of what is entailed! Working within community and with the youth is what Skill Hire do best and the pre-apprenticeship program is a great opportunity for young students to gain and insight into the construction industry.
Perfect starting point for students
Our 15 week program aiming to be a perfect starting point for these students. The course aims at providing students with generalized skills and basic hand skills that can be transferred across the industry. Students will focus on the importance of occupational health and safety, legislation, mandatory safety procedures and safe working practices required on a construction site. There will be practical demonstrations along with knowledge based tests, work experience and even field trips.
Our program has seen lots of success with many pre-apprentices going on to be employed through our Group Training and become Trainees/Apprentices and return to train with the RTO.
Next course due to commence 23 October
We continually run these programs throughout the year, our next course due to commence on Monday 23rd October. If you are interested in applying or know someone this would be well suited:
