Trade papers

Trade papers for completed Victorian apprentices record achievement, showing you have successfully completed your apprenticeship meeting industry standards for the trade.

Trade papers recognise the successful completion of your trade apprenticeship and acknowledge the deep technical trade skills you’ve gained.

You can receive a free trade paper if you have completed both:

  • a recognised apprenticeship in Victoria, which you started after 1 January 1995
  • the apprenticeship’s relevant qualification with a TAFE, trade school or registered training organisation.
