Want to work within an in-demand industry?
Early childhood education is one of the fastest-growing industries for employment today.
Childhood Educators provide social, emotional, physical and educational assistance to support age-appropriate development.
A traineeship with MEGT offers a chance to earn while you learn, with benefits like fee-free training, paid experience, and a pathway to further education.
As an MEGT backed trainee you can rest assured that you’ll have the support, mentoring and resources to excel.
All applicants require a valid and up-to-date Working with Children Check.
What will I be learning?
You will continue to learn every day when doing a traineeship. With experienced educators guiding you along the way, you will learn things such as:
- Structured learning in both indoor and outdoor settings
- Inspiring the development of children’s motor skills, cooperative skills, confidence and understanding through activities
- Developing confidence in language skills through story-telling, rhymes, and group and individual conversation
- Supporting children’s wellbeing
- Discussing children’s needs and progress with parents, individually and in meetings


What are the benefits?
A childcare traineeship usually lasts for 18 months and gets you straight into the workplace (and earning money), while you’re working towards a Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care. With a traineeship you will have the chance to:
- Become qualified in a priority industry
- Fee-free on the job training
- Open yourself up to many employment pathways or even further study
- Get a head start with hands-on experience
- Earn while you learn
Pathways
There are many pathways available once you have completed your traineeship and Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care. The possibilities are endless - with careers such as early childhood educator, child carer, daycare worker, centre manager, director, area manager, nanny or afterschool carer - you can even become a primary school teacher through further study!
