Workplace Skills & Apprenticeship Readiness (CSP-NMF-018)

Getting an apprenticeship is one thing. Keeping it is another. Many young Australians lose their first trade opportunity not because of technical skill — but because they weren't prepared for the workplace itself. This course makes sure that's not you. Across 3 modules, you'll build the professional habits employers care about — showing up on time, taking direction, communicating clearly, and understanding how an Australian workplace actually functions. You'll also learn how apprenticeships are structured, what your rights and responsibilities are, and how to make a strong impression in your first 90 days. Earn your CertSmart certificate and go into your first role knowing exactly how to behave, communicate, and succeed.
