Youth Pathway Programs
Creating an Alternative, Individual Pathway to Work or Study
Vocational Pathways: Post Year 10
Our Vocational Program offers a range of courses to eligible students offering a pathway to employment or further education.
The vocational program is subsidised by Smart and Skilled for those eligible and is an approved program for those wishing to prepare for the workforce or further study at TAFE.
The program requires students to have already left school or to be signed out of school. Students are leaving school by enrolling in this program.
Important: We have rolling enrolments.
It doesn’t matter what time of the year students are ready to start.
When they are ready, we are too!
Work Placements and/or Internships
If students are undertaking a vocational program with us and can demonstrate commitment to learn and work, we will organise work placement opportunities for them. They are responsible for the experience!
Work placement is a student’s chance learn new skills and demonstrate how their classroom learning can be applied in real workplace conditions.
For higher-level vocational qualifications and subject to employer needs, students may be offered an internship, allowing them to opt for volunteer work within an organisation while completing their learning.
(Note: Internships are volunteer programs, Traineeship/ Apprenticeships are paid programs)
School Involvement
Parents will be required to discuss the Pathway program with their child’s school Principal . The college must receive an exemption from enrolment from their current school before the student is eligible to enrol in our Pathway program
