Interview with Cadet, Callan Nickerson
 |
Indigenous Cadetship Support is aimed at improving the job prospects of Indigenous Australian students.
It links full-time Indigenous students undertaking a diploma, an advanced diploma or their first undergraduate degree with employers who can give them work placements and ongoing employment once they finish their studies.
What is the role of a cadetship employer?
Cadetship employers:
- provide paid work placements of 12 weeks for each year of the cadetship
- support the cadet through their study and work placements, giving professional guidance and mentorship
- employ cadets under an appropriate industrial instrument
- intend offering ongoing employment to the cadet once they successfully complete their cadetship.
- Financial assistance
Indigenous Cadetship Support provides employers up to $7050 per semester to support cadets with a living allowance and study-related costs and offset employer administration costs.
