Deliver career talks

Teach, Train and Coach

Education providers constantly need new and current industry personnel to teach, support, coach, and/or mentor learners. Whether on a paid or voluntary basis, help ensure students in our region develop the skills, knowledge, and behaviours employers need by being part of the solution.

Consider Employment Options

Staff due to retire might be interested in considering going into teaching full time, part time or on a casual basis. Or maybe you need to employ technical staff, but only part time; maybe they could work in education part time as well.
