How can part-time traineeships and apprenticeships fit in with the HSC?
A traineeship or apprenticeship is an employment-based training program with a formal agreement (Training Contract) between the employer and the student. The formal training part of a traineeship or apprenticeship can contribute to HSC. If this is the case, it is called a school-based traineeship or apprenticeship. The Training Plan which is signed by the school, the student and their parents/guardians, should show the HSC VET courses being studied as part of the school-based traineeship or apprenticeship. Approved school-based trainees and apprentices can also do Industry-based Learning which gives additional HSC unit credit for learning in the workplace.
