Options for youth
Young people have plenty of options open to them. All these can lead to
rewarding careers.
Here are the most common choices and links to some useful information:
- vocational and/or technical training. Check Training and Work Innovation Program (WIP) websites
- Australian Apprenticeships
- university
- employment. Check the Jobjuice, Jobsearch and Workplace websites
- volunteering
- start a business. Check the Enterprise Connect and Innovation websites
And remember—a choice made today is not a choice made forever.
People are no longer locked into one occupation or education level. Today, it’s easy to move from work to study, TAFE to university, or from an Australian Apprenticeship into a long-term professional career.
