Trade Pathways Program

The purpose of this opt-in program is to assist students on their pathway to securing a trade apprenticeship in their field of interest before leaving school. Through their participation in this program all students will achieve a pre-vocational certificate II relating to their specific trade during year 11 which include the fields of automotive, electrotechnology, construction, plumbing, manufacturing, engineering, hair dressing, barbering and retail cosmetics.

The program also provides students with real exposure to industry through work experience in year 10, Industry Placement week in year 11 and 12, and numerous work site visits, careers panels, personal development workshops and networking opportunities over the two years.

Traineeship Pathways Program

The purpose of a traineeship is to offer year 11-12 students a direct link into the workforce whilst also gaining a nationally recognised qualification. Through the traineeship program, students are paid employees in often their first experience in the workforce. Trinity College provides support to the students throughout their participation in the program which leads to very successful outcomes in relation to completion of qualifications and ongoing work and post school pathways.
