Apprenticeships are entry-level roles undertaken under a Training Contract between an employer and an apprentice that combines structured training with paid employment. Apprenticeships are generally at Certificate III level and above and extend across a range of trades. Apprenticeships typically have a duration of three to four years and are competency based. For an apprentice to be counted towards the MPSG requirement for a project they must be:
- undertaking a course that relates directly to their role on a LJF Project and is consistent with the Training Contract; and
- registered with the Victorian Registration and Qualification Authority (VRQA).
