The Trades Fit: Young Women in Trades and Tech Expo

Excursion opportunity - Tuesday 17 May

Female students in Years 9 and 10 are invited to apply to attend the Trades Fit Expo, held at the Melbourne Convention Exhibition Centre. The excursion is limited to 20 participants.

The Trades Fit - Young Women in Trades and Tech is an inaugural expo hosted by the Department of Education and Training. The expo showcases employment options within the trades and tech industries, with interactive displays set up for students to experience what these careers could be.

The expo will introduce female students to career pathways in traditionally male dominated industries, and provide information about how they can pursue exciting career opportunities in these fields.

The Trades Fit lets young women connect with employers, key industry organisations and supporters of gender equity, that are helping women step into these fields.

Students will hear from trade and tech representatives from fields including building and construction, electrical engineering, plumbing, automotive, transport and logistics, mining, agriculture and horticulture, aviation, marine, and many more.

Students will be able to engage with these career pathways through hands-on experiences, tech displays, information sessions, panel discussions and with guest speakers.

To REGISTER, please email Ms Mays: Kristy-ann.mays@education.vic.gov.au OR come to the Careers Office to register.
