Cabra-Vale Diggers Club collaborating with SWC to support 11,800 young people to improve their employability skills, career options and employment outcomes through sustainable and mutually beneficial partnerships.
(including hosting 1,600 work placement students over the past two decades across 3 VET courses)

SWC has organised over 1,600 workplacement opportunities for LGHS VET students over the past 11 years across 6 frameworks. A further 3,350 LGHS students have benefited from participating in the annual Youth Mental Health Summits, Work Ready and Mock interview sessions, Career and Transition Expos, Bully Prevention workshops and STEAM & Design Thinking initiatives hosted by SWC.

SWC’s collaboration with RIEP (Regional Industry Education Partnership) and EPPP (Educational Pathways Pilot Program) helps students gain work skills for life beyond high school. These include a range of Career Explorer and Work Immersion programs that assist with career decision making and transition to work (including the student restaurant takeover projects: Class Chefs and Student Pop Up Café).

SWC works with students, parents, educators and businesses to help students throughout primary and high school. We deliver a suite of programs that focus on building employability skills and gaining experience to help young people prepare for success at school and in the future, to secure productive jobs that match their interests and abilities.
