NSW school leavers are being encouraged to consider taking up an apprenticeship following the release of the 2012 HSC results on Wednesday.
Students who miss out on a university spot could take up an apprenticeship or a traineeship as an ideal introduction to the workforce, the Australian Business Apprenticeships Centre says.
"University shouldn't be seen as the best or only option for young people in an increasingly competitive labour market, where it can be difficult to secure employment after graduation," general manager Andrew Williams said in a statement.
"Young people should consider an apprenticeship regardless of their ATAR score, whether they obtained a high score or a lower score."
The class of 2011 secured apprenticeships in wide range of industries including automotive, electrical and manufacturing.
These industries along with building and construction are expected to retain their popularity for aspiring jobseekers in 2013.
"ATAR is not a strong predictor of future success and young people should be encouraged to follow their passions," Mr Williams said.
"For a young school leaver with plenty of enthusiasm and a willingness to learn new skills, this very practical, on-the-job training can set them on a great career path for the future."
Australian Tertiary Admission Ranks (ATAR), which determine whether a student qualifies for a university course, will be released on Thursday.
