Telecommunications Apprenticeships/Traineeships
Telecommunications apprenticeships or traineeships are a great option for people starting a career or moving into the telecommunications industry. Apprenticeships offer many benefits to both individuals undertaking them and to employers hosting them, providing a popular entry point into the industry.
Apprenticeships and traineeships pathways also allow participants to earn a living while gaining the skills they will need on the job.
What is an apprenticeship?
An apprenticeship is a contractual agreement between an employer and an individual. In that agreement the employee will undertake appropriate training to fill the work role needed by the employer. The employer pays them a lower rate than a person with full qualifications while the employee works and continues to study.
A traineeship combines paid employment with formal training through the nominated Registered Training Organisation (RTO) and on-the-job training supported by a workplace supervisor.
Why should my company take on an apprentice?
- Invest in your employees future
- Promote industry best practices
- Ensure safety compliance and culture

Because apprenticeships are a common entry point into the telecommunications industry, most of our qualifications can be achieved through an apprenticeship or traineeship. JB Hunter will liaise with all parties to develop a relevant and achievable training plan that will ensure that the training provided is relevant to the workplace so that the apprentice or trainee can further develop and practice the skills they gain through the formal classroom based training.
