What is a traineeship?

A traineeship is a structured training program that is available on a full time basis, generally for a duration of twelve months or more. What makes a traineeship particularly appealing is that you are actually working in the industry gaining real work experience and getting paid while you study.

A traineeship is a valuable first step towards a rewarding career. By taking on trainees, employers have the opportunity to develop well trained, versatile and multi-skilled employees.

Traineeships provide skills development through training that is employment based.

Financial incentives may be available to eligible employers who take on trainees. Once the trainee has successful completed the traineeship they gain a Nationally Recognised Qualification that can lead to further studies and higher employment in the industry. Traineeships offered through DrillSkill Training include:

  • Certificate II Drilling Operations
  • Certificate III Drilling Operations
  • Certificate IV Drilling Operations

In the following disciplines:

  • Air
  • Diamond
  • RC
  • Directional ( Cert III only)
  • Blast Hole ( Cert III only)

Traineeships provide real benefits for businesses as Trainee’s contribute to a workplace with practical skills and knowledge acquired through their training.

A unique feature is that DrillSkill Training can include class based theory (block release or various one-day workshops) in the delivery of its traineeships supporting the practical on-site training received from the employer. Trainees are therefore receiving the highest standard of Traineeship available in the sector.
