If you’re interested in exploring opportunities to participate in a trade or other roles which girls might not have traditionally pursued, take a look at some of the career pathways our female apprentices and trainees have taken.
Hear from girls who've already made the move and why they’ve never looked back
"You don’t really see many tradies that are girls and we’re kind of getting rid of and breaking down the general stigma around ‘it’s just a man’s thing"
Everyone’s path to their apprenticeship of choice is different – here are the girl’s stories:
Chloe Logarzo, Landscaper & Westfield Matilda's footballer
From a young age, Chloe loved spending time in the garden with her grandma. She always knew that if she couldn’t spend her entire day on the soccer field, she would like to spend it on a different kind of grassy knoll.
Cherise, Apprentice Motorcycle Technician
When Cherise was 16, she decided she wanted to pursue a career as a mechanic. Despite people around her not being convinced it was the right choice for her, she followed her passion and has never looked back.
Joan, Apprentice Chef
Joan knew from a young age that she wanted to be a chef when she grew up. Now, with the support of Apprenticeship Careers Australia, she is cooking up a storm in the kitchen!
Kirsten, Business Trainee
Not sure exactly what she wanted to do after school, Kirsten turned her interest in business studies into a career path with a big future.
Marvielyn, Former Business Trainee
Having completed her Certificate III in Business and working full time, Marvielyn is now helping people just like you reach their career goals.
