Meet Trace and Camille!

These two love a pathway or three and anyone who met them at the Jobs Fraser Coast - Fraser Coast Industry & Careers Showcase on Thursday would possibly have learned a thing or two (and/or tried their hand at speed-stacking!)

Camille heads up Fraser Coast Career Pathways Program (FCCPP) while Tracey is the Pastoral and Case Management Officer for the Youth Employment Pathways Program (YEPP) in the Wide Bay Burnett.

FCCPP is dedicated to supporting students take the next step from school into a career or further education and training.

YEPP's focus is the promotion of apprenticeships and traineeships in the Wide Bay Burnett's growth sectors including agriculture, manufacturing and renewable energy. It offers targeted support for young people, First Nations peoples, mature age participants and culturally and linguistically diverse communities.

Another fantastic outcome for the Fraser Coast Career Pathways Program 👏

After meeting Yarraan at several local events over recent months, the FCCPP team worked closely with him to help secure a work experience placement aligned with his interests and career goals.

Yarraan, a Grade 11 student with a strong passion for graphic design and impressive Adobe skills, is now completing a five-week placement with one day each week with JR Marketing Group .

Experiences like this are exactly what the Fraser Coast Career Pathways Program is all about. Supporting young people to explore real career opportunities, build confidence and gain hands-on industry experience.

Everyone's journey is different, and university is not the only option. Through apprenticeships, traineeships, work experience and industry connections, we’re helping create meaningful pathways for young people across the Fraser Coast.

We can’t wait to see where Yarraan’s creativity takes him next.

Better together ..... Pathways together!

A big thank you to everyone who joined us for the recent Pathways Together apprenticeship and traineeship information sessions in Maryborough and Hervey Bay.

Across the two afternoons, more than 75 parents, caregivers and teens connected with local workforce support services and industry experts to explore apprenticeship and traineeship pathways, ask questions, and gain practical guidance for the future.

It was fantastic to see so many discussions and big curiosity! A bunch of new connections were made with students and families taking positive steps towards building skilled and successful futures together.

Thank you to everyone who attended and helped make the events such a success.
