Marcellin Campus | How it Works
How it Works
An Australian School-based Apprenticeship or Traineeship (ASbA/SbAT) allows students to still attend school while working and studying as an apprentice or trainee.
As a school-based apprentice or trainee, students have an employer who will employ and train them on the job. Students undertake theory training with a Registered Training Organisation (RTO).
Enrolling in a School-based Apprenticeship or Traineeship has a number of benefits including:
Training will contribute towards the SACE
Starting a chosen career or trade while still at school
Earning money while learning
Gaining experience in the trade or vocation of choice
School-based training will convert to full-time or part-time post school
Offers variety in attending school part of the week, going to work on some days and attending a training provider on others
Apprenticeship training undertaken by a student will be deemed an SbAT when all of the following apply:
The student is enrolled in the SACE
Marcellin Campus acknowledges and endorses the Training Plan required by the Training Contract
The SBAT is recognised in the SACE
Under these arrangements, students are both full-time students and part-time employees. The Principal (or delegate) of Marcellin Campus will acknowledge and endorse an SbAT by being a signatory to the Training Plan attached to the Training Contract. This signifies that the SbAT is an integral part of the student's program that requires the following:
Marcellin Campus timetable for the student will be programmed to facilitate the student attending work and/or training
The student will exchange a number of SACE subjects for the nominal hours of VET competencies studied as part of the Training Contract
Marcellin Campus will submit the student's VET results related to the Training Contract that will contribute to their SACE completion
Marcellin Campus develops specific SACE units to assist in further VET or work placement hours recognition
Marcellin Campus supports the student through counselling, mentoring and support
Marcellin Campus ensures the SbAT is built into the student's learning pathways plan
