Careers / Pathways

 

OPEN DAYS

Open days at Tertiary Institutions such as Universities and TAFE Colleges occur throughout late July and August.  It is a perfect opportunity for students to visit the campus they may wish to study at and to find out firsthand about courses and likely career paths. There is also the opportunity to speak to current students and course representatives.

It is important to make the time to plan your future; in fact, we encourage not only Year 12 students to attend Open Days, but also Year 10 & 11 students so they can start planning their future pathways. 

Students who are attending Open Days should check the institutions website beforehand for details about information sessions to be held on the days, so that they can maximise their experience.

All Year 12 students should be researching courses and pathways for 2018.  The Careers Team will be working with all Year 12 VCE and VCAL students this term with briefings for VCE and VCAL students as well as individual appointments.

The VTAC website contains all the latest information on applying for courses at Universities, TAFE Colleges and Private Providers and will be available online at vtac.edu.au.  Alternatively, you can also access the most updated information (2018, 2019 and 2020) via the free VTAC App available from your iOS and Android stores – if you click on the relevant store, it will take you directly to the App for download.

VTAC Applications open on 7th August 2017 and close on 28th September at 5pm. You can use Course Search to research courses on the VTAC website or via the VTAC App.

We will guide all Year 12 students through the VTAC process and any other pathways that they are considering. If you have any questions regarding this process, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Please go to www.vtac.edu.au/opendays for a comprehensive list of OPEN DAYS.
