FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Got a question? We have the answer.
How long is an apprenticeship or traineeship?
Apprenticeships are typically 4 years, while traineeships are generally 1-2 years, depending on the qualification. There is also the potential for early completion if you complete your formal training early.
Do I get paid while completing an apprenticeship or traineeship?
Yes, apprenticeships and traineeships are paid employment positions. As a Zeal Futures employee, we’ll pay you weekly based on the relevant industry Award. Some of our host employers also agree to pay apprentices and trainees at above-Award rates.
Will I get time at work to complete my qualification?
As an apprentice, you will usually be allocated one day per week, or a block release period, where you will attend your RTO for training.
For traineeships, you are typically allocated 3 hours per week to complete your studies at work. Scheduling this can be discussed with your Zeal Futures Workforce Solutions Specialist and your host supervisor.
