At St Anne’s College, we encourage students to follow their dreams and pursue career pathways.
The college has two careers practitioners who assist the students when it comes to planning for future careers.
Students receive support to apply for university, TAFE, school-based apprenticeships and apprenticeships depending on the pathway required for their desired career.
In addition, students take part in a number of careers-based events and activities including the GV Health Taster Day, Tertiary Information Session Event, the Victorian Careers & Employment Expo, the Ag Careers Day, Careers Day Out and VTAC information sessions.
Recently, with the support of Goulburn Murray Local Learning & Employment Networks, the college hosted a Careers Expo for students.
This included various presentations including a representative from Goulburn Murray Credit Union who spoke to students about how to prepare for a job interview, employer expectations and what makes a good and a bad cover letter.
A representative from Apprenticeship Support Australia who spoke about what they do, why apprenticeships and traineeships are good pathway options, and how to apply for apprenticeships and traineeships. Aquamoves staff also talked to the students about job applications, key selection criteria and cover letters.
This day also featured an incredible opportunity for students to experience job interviews first-hand using virtual reality headsets from Vic Vice.
The VR headsets were also used to run virtual industry workplace tours.
It is just one of the many ways St Anne’s College encourages students to follow their career goals and aspirations.
