For the third year running, we were thrilled to offer our Year 11 students invaluable career insights from over 40 industry experts during our Future Agent Day! This event continues to be a highlight for our students, providing them with a unique opportunity to explore various career paths and hear directly from professionals in a wide range of fields.
The day began with a "Future of Work" talk presented by The University of Queensland (UQ), which set the stage by discussing the evolving job market and the skills employers are seeking. Students were then able to choose two panels to attend, each featuring industry experts who shared their experiences and offered valuable advice about their careers.
This year's panels included:
- Health
- Trade
- Engineering/Science
- Creative Arts
- Information Technology
- Education
- Sports/Sports Admin
- Protective Services
- Law/Business
The panellists were impressed by the level of questioning from our students, with many sharing that they wished they had had a similar opportunity when they were in school. The discussions were engaging, informative, and sparked new ideas and aspirations among the students. Several students even mentioned that, after attending Future Agent Day, they now have a clearer idea of what they want to pursue after graduation!
We extend our sincerest thanks to all the industry experts and guests who took time out of their busy schedules to be a part of this incredible event. Your insights and advice are truly appreciated.
