Pre-apprenticeships

A pre-apprenticeship is a nationally recognised qualification that has an automatic training and duration credit into the apprenticeship in the same industry area. A pre-apprenticeship training program prepares the student for entry into a trade based apprenticeship by equipping the student with foundation knowledge and skills.

Formal pre-apprenticeship arrangements have been approved by Skills Victoria (formerly OTTE) for both 21393VIC and 21844VIC Certificate II in Building and Construction.
