Career Advice Australia
Career Advice Australia is an Australian Government initiative
committed to providing quality career education and helping all
young Australians make a smooth transition through school and on to
further study, training or work.
The economy is growing and businesses are expanding and that’s led
to a growing demand for skilled workers. Career Advice Australia’s
comprehensive programmes and services aim to help all young people
aged 13 to 19 years, get the skills, training and advice they need
to make the most of their future.
The main elements of the Career Advice Australia initiative
include:
-
Local Community
Partnerships which assist schools and local businesses,
community organisations and industry bodies to deliver career
development and transition support services to help all young
people gain skills, experience, professional guidance and access to
industry-based career information
- Regional Industry Career
Advisers which ensure that young people, parents, schools
and local business receive relevant localised industry career
information, advice and resources
- National Industry Career
Specialists representing the 10 industry sectors, which
support the Regional Industry Career Advisers by providing industry
sector-specific information
- Youth Pathways which
offer personalised assistance to help young people who are at risk
of not making it through school or on to further education,
training or employment
Local Community Partnerships
Local Community Partnerships are not-for-profit, community-based
organisations that work closely with schools, local businesses and
community organisations to help 13 to 19-year-olds gain skills,
experience and guidance as they move through and beyond school.
To achieve this goal, Local Community Partnerships establish
relationships with important groups within the local community.
They form partnerships with local industry groups and employers,
schools, professional career advisers, community organisations,
parents, young people, youth service providers and other government
agencies and encourage these groups to work together to deliver the
following programmes:
- Structured Workplace
Learning
- Career and Transition
Support
- Adopt a School
Programme
Under the Career Advice Australia initiative, 213 Local
Community Partnership regions have been set up across Australia to
ensure that all young people are getting the support they need.
