IT Traineeship program in NSW Government
This innovative information technology training program for trainees combines a formal qualification with paid work at a NSW Government agency. It supports career pathways and upskills young people into a well-paid industry which is experiencing skill shortages.
The NSW Government is offering Year 12 school leavers from 2020 and 2021 an opportunity to apply for a NSW Government IT traineeship.
The program gives the public sector a direct role in developing our future IT professionals. The program supports career pathways, upskills young people and helps address skills shortages.
The traineeships include accredited and non-accredited training.
The training is delivered through TAFE NSW and the new Institute of Applied Technology (IAT), with Training Services NSW overseeing the program.
Trainees will get a formal qualification and vendor specific certification on completion of their traineeship.
Successful trainees will be well placed for further training and/or employment in the IT sector.
The first cohort commences from April 2022.
