The Youth Employment Scheme (YES) offers Victorians aged 15 to 29 paid work experience to develop skills and gain qualifications that can lead to ongoing employment.

YES provides young people with an opportunity to work in the Victorian Public Service for 12 months while completing accredited training.

Doing a YES traineeship lets you:

  • get real experience in a real job
  • learn valuable new skills
  • meet inspiring mentors
  • gain the confidence you need to get on a career path.
