Central Station Pre-Employment Scholarship

Central Station is pleased to offer two scholarships to the value assist in attending the Pre-employment short course.

 This training course has been designed to prepare potential employees for living and working on remote cattle stations. Training is based around day-to-day activities carried out on working cattle stations. Students will be involved in basic fencing, stock water supplies, cattle handling and husbandry, horse handling and care, mechanical maintenance, basic welding, machinery and ATV vehicle operation. 

Students will be enrolled in units from the Nationally Accredited AHC Training Package. Students will undertake these units at the Katherine Rural Campus. Following the residential component at the Katherine Rural Campus students will undertake a 4 week work experience placement.

Only students who are not eligible for a fee-exempt place are eligible for this scholarship. (Some people receiving Centrelink benefits may be eligible to be exempt from the course fees. As such, those people will not need the scholarship.)

This scholarship will be a reimbursement of course fees for the nominated amount upon completion of the course and the presentation of a Certificate of Attainment. The Just Country and Ariat Australia voucher will also be granted upon successful completion of the course.

The successful applicants will be required to write one story for the Central Station website upon the completion of the course, and one additional story in the six months following completion of the course.
