Defence Work Experience Programs - North Queensland

A couple of new programs have just gone live on the website!

The Defence Work Experience Program (DWEP) is a national Youth Program that provides young Australians with an interest in a Defence career, the opportunity to gain exposure to a range of job roles available within Defence and the Australian Public Service (APS). Defence work experience activities are designed to be hands on and interactive so that young people can make informed career decisions.

Please ensure to carefully read the eligibility criteria for each program as the Next Steps program is specifically for those candidates that are 18 and over.

Interested candidates - please head to the DWEP website to apply and ensure you monitor this site for updates on the programs. 

Places are limited and students are strongly encouraged to submit complete applications as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. Please note that we do work alongside ADF units to bring students a valuable experience with serving personnel and therefore unforeseen changes to operational commitments may result in a placement being changed, postponed and/or cancelled at short notice.
