Traineeships at Wellways

At Wellways, our traineeships are designed to prepare people completing formal mental health studies with the skills, capabilities and knowledge they need to enjoy a rewarding career in the mental health sector. Wellways currently offers two traineeship options funded by the Victorian Government: The Earn and Learn program and the Lived Experience Peer Cadet Program.

Both traineeships offer students a paid role in a Wellways mental health program while studying Certificate IV Mental Health or Certificate IV Mental Health Peer Work.
