The ABBTF’s becomeabricklayer.com.au is a great resource that can be very useful if you’re thinking about becoming a bricklayer. The site contains profiles of current bricklayers, information about how you can progress your studies, and competitions. What I’ve found the most interesting on the site, is the information on how apprenticeships work, and what to expect day to day as a working bricklayer.
