How School-based Apprenticeships Work:

An SBAT is a School-Based Apprenticeship or Traineeship that allows high school students to gain an industry recognised national qualification while completing paid work and structured training.
NSW school-based apprenticeships are up to the trainee’s school and employer to approve the release day(s) for employment and training
The trainee student will receive training from a Registered Training Organisation (RTO) that will be completed at either school, work or by attending a registered training facility
They must complete a National Training Contract, a legal agreement between the trainee, their employer and their school – contact Apprenticeship Support Australia for assistance with this

REINSW cannot make any assessment on eligibility of a learner for a SBAT under the Smart and Skilled program.
