Your role:
A Gap Year in the Army gives you an exciting taste of life in the ADF with just one year’s commitment. You’ll get paid for meaningful work, receive full Army training, and enjoy memorable experiences – unlike anything you’d encounter in a regular gap year.

You’ll also enter a specialisation, which can range from Armoured Officer to Engineering Officer to Signals Officer and more. Plus, you’ll be supported and guided by Army personnel throughout your experience.
After finishing your Gap Year program, you can choose to continue a career in the Army or you can use your new skills and experiences in future careers outside the ADF.
