Are traineeships available part-time?

Yes. Many traineeships are flexible and can be done part-time, which is ideal for school leavers, parents returning to the workforce, or career changers looking to study while working.

Is there a minimum wage for trainees?

Yes. Wages depend on your age, award agreement, and whether you’ve completed prior qualifications. Check up-to-date pay rates at Fair Work Australia.

Can mature-aged adults start a traineeship?

Absolutely. There’s no upper age limit. Many adults begin traineeships later in life, especially when changing careers or entering new industries. You may also qualify for mature-age support or funding incentives.
