Bricklaying Job Ready Program
Do you have a positive attitude and work well in teams? Are you interested in joining the WA residential construction sector?
The four-week program aims to provide a pipeline of bricklayers to meet the needs of WA’s booming building industry. The program takes a unique approach, combining a three-week short course with a four-day work placement with an employer, which may lead to a bricklaying apprenticeship.
Be part of Western Australia’s $147 million program, which will generate construction work to last through 2023.
The three-week short course teaches:
- work safety practices
- how to use a range of construction equipment and tools; and
- skills to work in a construction team.
During your work placement, you will:
- gain real, hands on industry experience; and
- secure a ‘foot in the door’ by working with an employer.
By completing this program, you may:
- be offered a bricklaying apprenticeship with your work placement employer;
- be deemed suitable for other employment opportunities within the residential construction sector; or
- decide to undertake further training.
