Swinburne VET Tasters
Final Excursions Wrap-Up
Our students have now completed their final sessions in the Swinburne VET Taster Program, rounding out an exciting and hands-on introduction to a variety of career pathways.
Our first group concluded their program with Community Services, learning about the many roles and communities that professionals in this field support. Students completed case studies and even designed their own ideal Community House, tailored to meet the needs of a chosen group.
Our second group wrapped up their experience with Carpentry, where they put their practical skills to the test by constructing a wall frame.
Our third group finished with Electrotechnology, getting hands-on experience stripping wires to create small wired models and experimenting with electrical circuits using light bulbs.
All students are to be commended for their enthusiasm, teamwork, and outstanding engagement across every session. Swinburne staff spoke highly of their positive attitude and curiosity throughout the program.
Looking ahead, we hope to extend these opportunities next year with industry visits, allowing students to see how these skills and courses are applied in real workplaces.
