The LINK Program is a CVGT initiative,
which provides an opportunity for year 10 students who
have an interest in the trades to gain valuable work
experience, and credits towards competency modules in
an apprenticeship. The program runs for between 13 and
16 weeks, and can be taken in either Building Construction
or Welding / Engineering.
Students participating in the LINK program
attend CVGT’s Industry Skills Centre (ISC) in
Eaglehawk 1 day per week, and attend school on the other
weekdays. While at the ISC, they undertake a range of
practical and theoretical training modules which provide
those who successfully complete the program with 5 nationally-accredited
modules in a first year apprenticeship. For many participants,
this course provides the link between school and gaining
apprenticeships in their field of interest.
