An IT traineeship is a fantastic way to bring fresh talent into your business while helping employees gain hands-on experience in real IT roles. It’s a structured program where trainees work while completing industry-recognised training. The benefits? Better staff retention, increased productivity, and lower hiring costs - plus, government wage subsidies make it even more affordable!

The great news is that, for eligible businesses, IT traineeships can be fully funded through government wage subsidies. That means you can train new or existing employees with little to no direct cost. On top of that, businesses may qualify for payroll tax exemptions and other financial incentives-making it a smart investment.

Most IT traineeships run between 12 to 24 months, depending on the qualification level and how quickly the trainee progresses. The flexible study model allows employees to balance their learning with work commitments without any major disruptions.

Most of our trainees transition into full-time IT roles upon graduation.

Absolutely! IT traineeships aren’t just for new hires-they’re a great way to upskill your existing team. Whether it’s cybersecurity, networking, IT support, or project management, your employees can gain new skills that directly benefit your business.

Trainees study through self-paced, online learning with one-on-one trainer support, meaning they can learn at their own speed while continuing to work. This approach ensures minimal disruption to your business while still providing quality training.

Businesses hiring IT trainees may qualify for:

Wage subsidies – Government funding can cover a significant portion (or all) of a trainee’s wages.

Payroll tax exemptions – Reduce employer tax costs.

Training cost offsets – Many programs are fully funded, so there are no direct training expenses.

Offering career development makes employees feel valued-and when people feel valued, they stay. Studies show that 45% of employees are more likely to stay with a company that offers structured training, while 90% won’t leave if they have clear development opportunities. Traineeships help build loyalty and engagement within your team.
