We wanted to let you know about our TRADE Ready Program, which will be delivered in Ipswich from 23 March to 10 April 2026, followed by structured work experience (114–120 hours) from 13 April to 1 May 2026.
We’re delivering this program in partnership with CSQ Queensland, and we are currently seeking 12 participants who are interested in entering the construction industry. Participants will need to have a driver’s license or be close to obtaining one. Any help you can provide in promoting this across the Ipswich community would be wonderful. Please feel free to share within your networks, and I’m happy to answer questions or run an info session as needed.
MRAEL, in partnership with ATTC, is excited to bring our Construction Trade Ready Program to the Ipswich community!
If you’re interested in a future in construction but aren’t sure how to get started, this entry-level, CSQ-funded 6-week program is the perfect first step. You’ll gain hands-on training combined with real on-the-job work experience designed to prepare you for permanent employment or an apprenticeship upon completion.
Program Highlights:
