Paid Industry Training  

Nine months paid Industry Training boosts your qualifications, and increases your career opportunities 

When you study for your Diploma, Associate Degree or Bachelor’s degree at ICMS, theory and academic study aref only part of the picture. Our Industry Training program is an equally important part of our curriculum. It’s not just valuable experience; it’s a structured and supervised part of your course. During your first year of study you will work with our Career Services team who will prepare you for your employment opportunity and by meeting our professional standards you can accrue the industry training hours required to obtain your Diploma, Associate Degree or Bachelor Degree.

Depending on the nature of the industry you are working in this may be paid or volunteer work and, whilst most students take Industry Training in trimesters 3 and 4 may be taken at any time after trimester 2 and before trimester 6 in your program. There are no college fees for this period. The College’s Career Services office will assess your skill level and aptitude, and prepare you for this important phase of your education.

You will be taught how to collate a resumé, conduct yourself in interviews and find out more about what prospective employers look for. A series of mock interviews and individual pre-placement sessions will provide you with feedback and confidence. The Career Services office provides considerable assistance in obtaining placements around Australia, and in some cases, internationally.
