Employed by Group Training Organisation (GTO)
If you are currently registered with a Group Training Organisation, ask them about apprenticeship and traineeship possibilities through the Queensland Government. The GTO will then investigate opportunities with us to see whether you can get on-the-job experience within the Queensland Government. Phone 1800 819 747 (free call within Australia) for further information.
Existing workers employed as apprentices and trainees
If you currently work for the Queensland Government, and have done so for longer than three months full-time, or twelve months part-time or casual, consider commencing an apprenticeship or traineeship where you are. Discuss the possibilities with your supervisor.
