Overview

The federal infrastructure department develops policy across transport, regional development, communications, sport and the arts. It explicitly announces March 2027 applications for its 2028 Graduate Development Program. The published programme uses three rotations and eleven months of training, supported by a senior executive mentor, with ongoing APS5 placement following successful completion. Graduates relocate to Canberra and can preference their work areas. Business, policy and corporate pathways are relevant to this inventory. The webpage retains a 2027 title and previous-intake qualification dates, so those dates and its March 2026 salary amounts have not been assumed to apply to 2028.
