Kyle’s School Based Apprenticeship has enabled him to complete his SACE and start his career as a motor mechanic.

Cameron is undertaking a Plumbing apprenticeship through Murraylands Training and Employment and hosted by Haig & Menzel  Contractors. Living in Geranium, Cameron  drove 100 kms each way to attend work in Murray Bridge.

He loves living in the country and hopes to stay living in a rural community while completing his apprenticeship. He would recommend a School Based Apprenticeship to any one who aspires to take on a trade as their profession, as it gives the best of both worlds; studying towards a profession while still obtaining your SACE.
