Earn while you learn to be a next generation IT professional

For Australian business to keep pace with technological change that’s only getting faster, we’ll need around 1.2 million IT professionals by 2030. It’s a big number.

But if you have your sights set on a rewarding, future-proof career at the cutting edge, it represents a massive opportunity.

The MEGT IT Traineeship with Microsoft+

Launched in 2019, the program has supported Australians while they gain a Certificate IV in Information Technology and embark upon exciting IT careers with more than 200 companies around the country.

How it works

As a trainee, you’ll be employed through MEGT’s Group Training program. 

That means we’ll take care of your salary and entitlements, while our field officers support you throughout your traineeship - monitoring your training and helping you successfully complete your qualification.  

After your induction, we’ll place you with a host employer who’ll be responsible for your on-the-job training and development. 

Once you've completed 19 of the 20 units in your Certificate IV in Information Technology - or have reached 12 months into your traineeship - your MEGT consultant will meet with you and your host employer to help you choose three Microsoft micro credentials from a suite of 21 options, aligned with your career goals and the needs of your workplace.
