What is the Job Ready Program?

Published: Mar 24, 2026

The Job Ready Program (JRP) is a supervised employment program run by Trades Recognition Australia (TRA). It requires you to work in paid, trade-related employment in Australia and provide evidence of that work over a set period. Completing the JRP is often the critical step that determines whether you can apply for a skilled migration visa.

The work experience you build while studying feeds directly into your JRP evidence, which is one of the main reasons we encourage students to work in their trade throughout the course. Speak with our agents about how the JRP applies to your trade.
