Delivering world class vessels, Incat Tasmania is working towards the transition to zero emission passenger and vehicle ferries. Incat Tasmania’s registered training organisation offers trade pathways in fabrication, welding, engineering, electrical, electronics and instrumentation in partnership with TasTAFE and other specialist RTOs.

Incat’s industry-leading apprentice training program blends hands-on experience with theoretical learning. First-year apprentices spend four to six months in the shipyard’s dedicated training centre, where they develop foundational skills before transitioning to the production floor – ensuring they are well-prepared for the challenges ahead.

Incat engages external organisations to ensure holistic support is available to apprentices throughout their training journey, including exercise physiology services, financial advice and targeted mentoring.

Nine dedicated training staff are employed at Incat, including an apprentice supervisor who is responsible for the wellbeing and educational requirements of every apprentice.

With an average intake of 30 apprentices each year, Incat is committed to nurturing the next generation of shipbuilders.
