Pursue Your Dream Career
When you’re just starting out in your educational pursuits, thinking about your future career and all of the steps required to get there is daunting. STEP takes the anxiety out of planning for your future. We lay everything out for you step-by-step, helping you choose a career filled with passion, find the right apprenticeships and traineeships to bolster your portfolio, and how to structure your education and training to land your dream job.
-
Apprenticeships vs Traineeship: Both are 'on-the-job' paid roles with a study component for accreditation. Apprenticeships focus on a trade skill while traineeships focus on a specific vocational area (a specific part of a trade/business).
-
Tertiary Study: A tertiary education is designed for those looking at education options beyond high school to study a specific field or industry. Tertiary education can be through either university, tafe or private colleges.
-
University: In most cases, university courses have minimum entry requirements including grade results from high school and include courses that result in degrees, diplomas, majors and doctorates.
-
Tafe: Tafes across Australia have fewer entry requirements than that of universities and in some cases will require no prior education. The majority of courses can result in obtaining certificates with some courses resulting in Diplomas and Bachelor degrees - depending on the course.
