A Working Holiday visa (Subclass 417 visa) allows a young national (18-30 years) to work, study, and travel in the country for 1 year, which can be extended up to 3 years with first, second, and third Working Holiday visa.  An applicant can simultaneously work and study in Australia with a Subclass 417 visa, provided they study for up to 4 months and work for a single employer for six months. Three Subclass 417 visas allow applicants to take up short-term study courses for 4 months, which will help them gain certification that can be helpful for further studies in Australia.
