Scholarships for Career Advisers
The Australian Government’s Scholarships for Career Advisers school, TAFE and university program provides an opportunity for practitioners to enhance their skills, and by extension, supports young people making transitions from school to work or further study.
There are two Scholarship categories: a Study Scholarship or an Industry Placement.
The Study Scholarship provides each career adviser with $5000 to assist in post-graduate level studies to upgrade their qualifications. Industry Placement Scholarship recipients receive $10,000 to support them to participate in short-term industry placements, enriching their knowledge of workplaces, occupations and industries.
Scholarship recipients are selected from metropolitan, regional and remote areas across Australia and are considered in terms of skills, knowledge and experience that applicants hope to gain, and the potential benefits for students, schools, colleagues and workplaces.
The Industry Placement Scholarships will also be selected to ensure a spread across industries.
Curriculum Corporation manages the scholarships application process for the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations (DEEWR). Applications are assessed by a panel of representatives from DEEWR, Curriculum Corporation and industry organisations.
