Due to the outstanding success of the recent “Brick & Blocklaying Apprenticeship Ready Course” held at SMTAFE Thornlie recently, the Australian Brick and Blocking Training Foundation (ABBTF) in WA is planning to repeat the course at the same location in the week of Monday April 9.
This is your chance to:
- Learn the trade basics with a high quality Training Provider and an experienced Bricklaying Lecturer
- If successful, obtain a White Card and
- Engage with a Bricklayer on site through Work Experience.
The purpose of this course is “Engagement and Transition” for young people seeking an apprenticeship, conducted in a time-effective and cost conscious manner. By getting involved in the Apprenticeship Ready Course you have the best chance to transition towards the ultimate goal of obtaining a Brick & Blocklaying Apprenticeship. Currently the ABBTF in WA is assisting our industry stakeholders to fill 20+ Apprenticeship vacancies from Yanchep to Busselton.
So, checkout the Become-a-Bricklayer website to learn more about the trade and visit our Facebook page. Applicants should be highly motivated, enjoy working outdoors and strive for success. Ideally you should have a Drivers licence or be working towards gaining one soon. Age of applicants can vary from 16 years old and mature aged persons are also welcome to apply.
