Career Education & School To Work Pathways
Career education is an important element in preparing young people to successfully move from school to further education, training, or employment.
Career education is the development of knowledge, skills and attitudes through a planned program of learning experiences in education and training settings to assist students to make informed decisions about their study and work options and enable effective participation in working life.
The My Future website provides a wealth of tools and resources to assist students and their families in making career choices.
