Digital Traineeship program

The Australian Government Digital Traineeship Program provides modern, flexible and ongoing training and employment for people wanting to build a digital career in the APS.

The program focuses on attracting participants from groups currently under-represented in the digital field, such as First Nations peoples, women, older people (45+ years) and veterans transitioning to civilian roles and their spouses.
