Our careers guest speaker program starts up again in Week 6 and these events are an excellent way for students to learn about various careers and what tertiary institutions are offering. Career decision making is challenging, and the more our students know about different career paths, the more confident they can be about their career choice.
Attending Career Mondays is voluntary for students, and it is held on most Mondays throughout Terms 1 and 2, usually in the Forum. We start at 1:30pm and usually finish by 2pm to allow time for questions.
Our lineup of speakers this Term includes:
Week 6 - Speech therapy and Occupational Therapy - hear from two practising speech therapists and an occupational therapist from Westmead Hospital
Week 7 - The University of Sydney - learn about different courses, faculties and the opportunities on offer
Week 8 - Business Careers - finance, accounting and the list goes on. What is it like to work in business and what are employers looking for in the corporate world?
Week 9 - Careers in Logistics - we may all love online shopping, but what roles are involved in this industry that has such an international focus?
Week 10 - Dentistry and Oral Health - Hear how oral health involves many other occupations apart from just Dentistry
Week 11 - Insurance industry - we all rely on it in times of crisis, and it's the second biggest
industry in Australia but we may not realise the opportunities for corporate career progression in insurance.
Students are encouraged to come along, even if they have no idea what the career topic is about. Collect your ticket at the door to win our lucky door prize!
