This is a pre-vocational course for learners seeking to gain an apprenticeship in the Construction industry, following senior secondary school studies. Learners will complete common core competencies shared between 11 Construction trades, then select additional competencies from the Solid Plastering trade pathway.
Learners will develop relevant technical, vocational and interpersonal competencies suitable for further training in construction as well as skills, knowledge and experiences that may be transferable to other industry areas.

2. The set of work placement coordination modules should be used to indicate that the RTO has undertaken and completed its responsibilities for establishing and monitoring work placements for each pre-apprentice student.
3. RTOs should report students in each module as each phase of the work placement is achieved.
4. The student does not incur course fees for the work placement modules as the nominal hours value for each of these modules is zero.
5. The Department of Training and Workforce Development will use the work placement coordination units reported for each pre-apprentice to monitor, and trigger funding for, RTO efforts in establishing and monitoring work placements.
6. The work placement coordination modules do not represent the amount of workplace experience a student must undertake.
7. The work placement coordination modules are non-assessable and do not specify skill and knowledge requirements.
8. Work placement coordination modules should only be reported as outcome “Non-assessable - satisfactorily completed” (NA for State Training Providers; 4 for private training providers).
