Study. Work. Launch.
What is it?
The Launch Pad is a specialised HSC pathway for students who don't want to choose between study and real-world experience. This integrated program runs both in parallel, where you're building your HSC (or is it a ROSA?) and your career at the same time.
What does it include?
A tailored suite of HSC subjects delivered as one connected program without the need to sit any HSC Exams
Industry credentials and certifications personalised to your goals and career direction — so you graduate with more than just an HSC
A significant work component, giving you real time experience in real workplaces while you are still studying
Practical skills training in the areas employers actually care about
Close, ongoing support from our Post School Pathways Team to make sure you land where you want to go
Why choose it?
You finish Year 12 with your HSC and a portfolio of credentials tailored to where you're headed
You are already building work experience and professional networks before you graduate with the possibility of a job waiting for you once you finish school
You develop skills like communication, problem-solving, and workplace confidence that no exam can fully teach
Your post school pathway is being actively planned and supported — you won't just be figuring it out in Year 12
Who is it for?
Students who are motivated, goal-driven and ready to make Year 11 and 12 count for more than just exams. It is a great opportunity for students who are seeking a NON-ATAR pattern of study and whose immediate post school aspirations focus on entering the world of work.
If you are selecting this pathway you do not need to preference subjects - this is a combined program with work included.
