Inspired by his brother’s successful boilermaker career, Callan decided to pursue a plumbing apprenticeship to build a stable and rewarding career, and he’s never looked back. He aspires to move into a leading hand role and build a positive reputation in the industry.
Callan is completing his plumbing apprenticeship through TAFE SA (RTO) and the Trainee and Apprenticeship Placement Service (GTO), while being hosted by Connekt Contracting.
Callan has helped prepare a Reconciliation Action Plan on behalf of his GTO and host employer, and he has also participated in a cultural leadership program designed to bring First Nations apprentices together in a supportive community.
With a deep connection to community and culture, Callan actively shares his experiences with friends and family. He is a proud advocate for inclusive vocational pathways and hopes to inspire younger members of his community to consider hands-on careers in the trades.
