User Choice

User Choice is a program funded by both the Commonwealth Government and State Governments through which employees may undertake an apprenticeship or traineeship qualification. Employers, apprentices or trainees negotiate with the Registered Training Organisation of their choice as to when they will attend structured training, the qualification they would like to undertake, and any other aspect of the training to be delivered.

IMPACT Make Your Mark is a Registered Training Organisation contracted by the Department of Education and Training (DET) to deliver training under the User Choice traineeship system

IMPACT Make Your Mark works with trainees and their employers to help develop a training plan, deliver training, assess achievement of skills and issue a qualification on successful completion of the traineeship.

Just about anyone who wants to combine training with working in a paid job is eligible for an apprenticeship or traineeship. All trainees and employers should contact a local Australian Apprenticeship Centre to apply, or contact the Department of Education and Training on 1300 369 935 if the employer has any concerns regarding minimum age requirements.

‘During the eight months I spent completing my Traineeship with IMPACT Make Your Mark, I realised that there are so many career opportunities available without having to spend at least four years studying at University.  IMPACT and my trainer Melissa Findlay, provided me with the opportunity to further my knowledge in both business and the every day workforce.  The modules I completed during my traineeship were not only activities that I was interested in, but were relevant to the tasks I performed daily in my job at Microair Avionics.  In completion of my traineeship and the support and confidence I received from Melissa, it has given me the motivation to improve my skills to be able to achieve a job in the police force that I have so long desired’.
