Uni not for you? Hear from three real-life STEM professionals who’ve kickstarted alternative study pathways via VET opportunities
University is great for some, but apprenticeships and traineeships combine the best of both worlds! You get to work on-the-job, learning and earning a wage – and in some cases, the government will even cover your training fees.
Watch our latest webinar to find out more about vocational education and training (VET) opportunities and gain industry insights from real-life STEM professionals who kickstarted their careers as apprentices.
Meet network design operative Kirsty Penney, diesel mechanic apprentice Lucas O’Sullivan and structural draftsman Saverio Vasapollo.
