This apprenticeship will span 3 years of in-service training, aiming for a qualification as a Tractor or Earthmoving Mechanic.

After this, the apprentice will be bound by an AFGRI contract and begin formal training. This training includes:

All apprentices are bound by a 3-year contract with AFGRI, and any withdrawal within the apprenticeship period or “work-back period” will incur costs, calculated based on the time and phase of withdrawal. Apprentices are expected to work back the time it took them to qualify. The contract cannot extend beyond 4 years; if not qualified within this period, the contract expires.
