Technical apprenticeships
We currently offer a number of technical apprenticeships at Powerlink, which are advertised throughout the year. All apprentices are required to complete a nationally recognised Certificate III qualification as part of the apprenticeship.
Apprentices undertaking our Electrical Apprenticeship (Secondary Systems) or Electronics Apprenticeship will also complete an Associate Degree in Electrical Engineering, paid for by Powerlink.
