CAREERS

Lilydale High Careers Website

Our aim is to provide you with all the latest information that will help you make decisions about your future career and your life beyond school.

You can use this site to locate University, TAFE and any other type of course across Australia, get information about the VCE, search for job vacancies and much more. Feel free to drop into the Careers Office if you have any questions.

Lilydale High School Careers Website

Parents and Carers are welcome to contact the school and arrange a Careers Interview with a Career Practitioner if your child is experiencing difficulties and needs assistance in succeeding at school, completing their schooling to the highest level possible (Year 10 as a minimum) and in gathering information about potential careers.

VTAC Information Sessions

For those of you who wish to apply for university and TAFE for 2024, VTAC Information Sessions will run on the following dates in Room 11;

Thursday 3 August, at lunchtime
Friday 4 August, Period 6
Monday 7 August, at lunchtime

At these times, the process for creating a VTAC account (which you need to apply for university and TAFE) will be discussed. Information about SEAS (Special Entry Access Scheme) and scholarships will also be discussed.

Prior to attending a session, please create a USI, if you do not already have one.

If you are doing a VET subject, you will already have one and don't need a new one.

You can create (or find) a USI here:

2024 Work Experience at Parliament House

Whether you’re interested in politics, planting trees, law-making or baking, your work experience placement at the Parliament of Victoria will be an experience you’ll remember.

This is a unique opportunity to undertake a one-week placement in either a Parliamentary Sitting or Parliamentary Services program. (Check the website for more details on what is involved in each.)

Requirements

To participate, you must be 15 years or older at the time of placement AND be a Victorian resident studying at a Victorian secondary school.

How to apply

When expressions of interest open, you will be invited to submit an expression of interest that will tell us about your career goals, your current areas of study and what you’d hope to get out of a work experience placement at the Victorian Parliament.

This process will take you about 10 minutes to complete. You will need to complete the form in one session because you can’t save an incomplete form and return to it later. We've prepared a handy guide to help you prepare your expression of interest.

Key Dates

Expressions of interest for Terms 1 & 2, 2024 will close at 5:00 pm on Friday 12 January.

Interested students will be notified of the outcome of their expression of interest no later than Friday 2 February.
