Welcome

In this edition of MY FUTURE Careers News, the Year 12 cohort is continuing to assess and decide on preferences for University and TAFE Entry in 2025. The VTAC session for students and parents was presented last Thursday with fantastic attendance.

Students are encouraged to apply for their SEAS (Special Entry Access Scheme) as soon as possible as all applications received before Friday, 20 September will be assessed and applicants will be notified if further evidence is required. Students are also encouraged to apply for Scholarships via the VTAC process.

I encourage all Year 12 students to make a time with me to discuss their options, which include contingency strategies should results not go to plan. Timely applications for University entry close on Monday, 30 September 2024.

In addition, this edition includes information on:

Open Day events continue at universities and TAFEs
Science Week - careers for those with disabilities
Understanding Microplastics
Work Experience at Victoria’s Parliament
How to become a Wildlife Biologist
Cool jobs in Animal Rescue
The future of STEM careers: guide for parents.
