ADF Gap Year applications are now open


Students can now apply to experience their Gap Year in the Navy, Army or Air Force

In one action-packed year you will:

·         Gain valuable skills and work experience,

·         Enjoy a good salary package plus free healthcare,

·         Live a varied, active and healthy lifestyle,

·         Make friends with like-minded people.

The ADF Gap Year program is an excellent way for your students to experience military life and to gain a greater understanding of what's involved. On completion they can continue serving in the Navy, Army or Air Force, or offer the skills and experience they've acquired to an alternative career path

In 2017 there are 11 roles to choose from ranging from admin to artillery, and flight crew to logistics. Places are strictly limited and will only be open for a limited time so make sure your students are informed of this opportunity.

Things to know:

·         Employment commences early 2017

·         Applicants must have completed Year 12 and be aged between 18 and 24 as of 1 April 2017 (Navy), 31 May 2017 (Army), or 7 April 2017 (Air Force).
