School Services Programme

Westvic's School Services Programme offers students and schools assistance with information on careers and employment.

The School Services Programme includes:

• Career guidance, job-seeking skills, interview techniques, resume preparation and letters of application.
• Employer expectations — do you have what it takes?
• Helping students with skill enhancement and motivation
• How to get the most out of school
• Support, guidance, referral and monitoring to define what your career goals are and how best to achieve it. Your dreams can become a reality!
• A 'one stop shop' to find information fast and confidentially. You can be assured you are treated like a person, not a number.
• Help to find a job, including direct referrals to jobs and ongoing support should you need it
• Apprenticeships and traineeships – how to start your new career
• Centrelink, career counselling, Youth Allowance, approved training activities, and referrals to professional support agencies
• Information on the Westvic Youth Foundation, which aims to assist individuals in the secondary school system in need of financial support to participate in vocational studies
