Watch the episodes now
Created with parents at the forefront , the showcase has the specific focus on helping them to better understand the options available through VET including apprenticeships and traineeships.
This is a fantastic tool for schools to use and promote to support subject selection information, parent information sessions, and career advisory services.
The digital series is available now (in total 75 minutes). It is presented in 4 parts, with the flexibility for parents to view areas of interest which they and their children may wish to explore in depth such as health, advanced manufacturing, defence, technology. The digital show is available now.
The Live show was held on Tuesday 21 May 2024 in North Sydney and filmed/ edited to create the digital series including panel speakers, ambassadors and music performed by world renown Conductor George Ellis and his Pocket Orchestra which brings energy and creativity to the showcase. Also presenting and/or performing was Rachel Beck, Graham Ross, Luke Mangan, OAM Jenine Smith (Career Advisers Association NSW), Don Spencer OAM plus others speaking about careers and opportunities.
The aim of the program is to provide information on VET in a creative and engaging way to parents of High School Students enabling them to understand the value and alternative career pathways and opportunities offered through vocational education (VET) and skills training.
We also wanted to assist career advisers/ practitioners in their efforts of promoting these pathways to a rewarding and prosperous career and shatter the myths that university is the only option for ambitious young students.
Included is a showcase of success stories of the VET sector through NSW Training award ambassadors/and industry speakers, plus specific segments on school-based apprenticeships and traineeships and work placement, emerging careers, new industry programs and an extended area on options for apprenticeships- including different training options . The showcase finishes with links to resources and contacts where parents can receive further information to support their child in their VET journey
The 4 episodes are available on our website as well as on Youtube plus 2 panel discussion Videos recorded at the Live event.
