Business Traineeship Program

People with Disabilities Stream

If you're applying for the Business Traineeship Program - People with Disabilities, here is information on how it works and how to apply.

How does it work?

Once you are registered with the Business Traineeship Program, you will have the chance to be referred to WA State Government agencies that want to employ a Business Trainee. This means your resume will be sent to WA State Government agencies for their consideration. If you are the successful candidate, you will then undertake the Traineeship for 12 months, completing a Certificate II or III in Business. You will earn a training wage starting from $245.10 - $569.70 per week, while you learn a range of valuable skills! Your wage will depend on a number of factors including:

• the highest year of schooling you completed;
• the number of years you've been out of school; and
• your age

How do I apply?

The WA State Government is committed to employing young people with disabilities. You, or your Specialist Employment Agency, can register your details at any time during the year by sending this REGISTRATION FORM and a copy or your resume to pwd@psc.wa.gov.au.
