At Xavier, we work with registered training organisations (RTOs) to offer students a number of different external pathways to assist them in achieving qualifications and employment. Students have opportunities to undertake either a School Based Apprenticeship and Traineeship (SBAT), gain VET qualifications through our SBAT, EVET and TVET programs or study a course not provided at Xavier through our distance education program. Students will receive recognition towards their Record of School Achievement (ROSA) or HSC, as well as a nationally recognised qualification.
SBATs
School Based Traineeships:
It is possible to complete a traineeship while you are still at school. In a School Based, Part Time Traineeship, you complete your Traineeship part time and complete your HSC as well. A school based, part time trainee must complete the same number of hours of work and training that a full time trainee is expected to complete (normally 1200-1600 hours) they just do it over a longer period of time.
You will normally complete a minimum of 100 days of paid employment over the term of your traineeship.
As a school based, part time trainee, you get:
a job
accredited training
ongoing advice and support
a training wage
an HSC
a nationally recognised qualification
