What are the Jobs and Skills Expos?

Jobs and Skills Expos are held across Australia to help connect job seekers with employment and training opportunities. Expos are a joint initiative between DEEWR and the Department of Human Services and function like a ‘jobs market place’ providing a unique opportunity for local employers to promote local jobs to local people. Expos provide information about local jobs and pathways, employment and training service providers as well as workshop sessions on job readiness and other relevant government and community services.

Expos are also attended by local Job Services Australia providers who deliver employment services to job seekers in more than 2000 locations. For many job seekers, a local provider is their first contact for employment needs. Find your local Job Services Australia provider.

Have Expos been held in the past?

40 Expos were held throughout 2009 - 2010 connecting over 15,500 job seekers with jobs and training opportunities. Under the extension of the initiative, 40 more Expos will be delivered across Australia under the extension of the initiative through to 2013.
