Youth Jobs PaTH is a flexible new program to prepare young people and help them into work. It also supports employers to trial a young person in an internship and can contribute to the cost of recruitment.
Youth Jobs PaTH consists of three elements: Prepare-Trial-Hire:

• Prepare–Employability Skills Training can help equip young people (aged 15–24) for work and help them understand the expectations of employers.
• Trial–employers can trial a young person (aged 17–24) in an internship for between 4 and 12 weeks.
• Hire–employers who hire an eligible young person (aged 15–24) can receive up to $6500 or $10,000 (GST inclusive) to help contribute to the costs of hiring and training.
