Today was an exhilarating day filled with learning and networking at the Swinburne University Career Practitioner Seminar. From hands-on experiences with the LEGO Serious Play methodology to diving into media and communications workshops featuring AR, VR, and AI image design, the day was nothing short of incredible. One of the highlights was the opportunity to connect with passionate career practitioners from across Victoria. Sharing stories of the remarkable achievements of the class of 2023 and the aspirations of the class of 2024 was truly inspiring. It was a reminder of the impact we have on shaping future careers and guiding individuals towards their goals. A particularly special moment was seeing my former manager and mentor and all-around amazing career practitioner, Caitlin Porter RPCDP . Caitlin has been a guiding light throughout my career change journey, offering invaluable advice and support. Spending time with her amidst the seminar's bustling energy was a perfect way to end a busy work week. Events like these not only provide valuable insights and skills but also foster meaningful connections within the professional community. Here's to continuous growth and connection in the ever-evolving world of career development! Thank you Swinburne University of Technology

🎓 Last week was an incredible experience taking secondary students to Monash University for a day-long immersion as university students. Witnessing their enthusiasm while participating in mini-lectures and tutorials was truly inspiring. The leap from secondary to tertiary education is monumental. Being part of bridging this transition and preparing students for their next steps feels immensely rewarding. Helping them navigate this pivotal phase is key to unlocking their potential and fostering their academic journey. Kudos to the students for their curiosity and eagerness to explore, and a huge thank you to Monash University for facilitating such an invaluable opportunity. Here's to empowering the next generation of bright minds and paving the way for their success! 🌟 #EducationMatters #StudentEmpowerment #BridgingTheGap

Excited to have Arrive & Thrive's facilitator, Tyson Day, leading a workshop with our Class of 2024 students! They explored professional profiles, networking, and harnessing social media's power, specifically on LinkedIn. Huge thanks to Tyson for equipping our students with crucial skills for their upcoming journeys! 🌟 #CareerReady

Yesterday, I was out at Toorak College, Mt Eliza to work with the Year 11s on #personalbrand and LinkedIn! The students were amazing and participated really well, asking great questions and sharing their thoughts on the different leaders, athletes and celebrities' personal brands. We essentially come to the conclusion that we don't know these people personally, but we judge them based on social media, news and what we hear from friends, etc. We are only human ;) We then explore how employees do this on a micro-scale and how young people need to be mindful of developing their brand. Finally, we explore what makes a good LinkedIn profile at this early stage in their career and how to start on the platform. Huge thanks to Coco Callanan/McKay for involving me in the program and being a real advocate for what we do here at Arrive & Thrive.

Embracing Work-Integrated Learning in Secondary Schools The future of education is evolving, and it's time to prepare our students for the dynamic world of work. Why wait until university to dive into the world of Work-Integrated Learning? I'm incredibly passionate about starting this journey early, right from secondary school. Imagine students getting a taste of their future careers while still in school. Picture them applying classroom knowledge to solve real problems, collaborating with industry experts, and gaining practical skills that will set them up for success. Work-integrated learning is the bridge between the classroom and the workplace, and it's a game-changer for education. It equips young people with the skills, confidence, and adaptability they need to thrive in the ever-evolving job market. I'm committed to working with organisations to make a difference in education. Let's develop the leaders and change-makers of tomorrow together, right from the start!

On 15th September 2023, last day of Term 3, CMP's Gems in STEM 2023 Program visited Toorak College, Mt Eliza. The Program aims to inspire students in Year 10 - 12 to find a passion for purpose in what they do, with an emphasis on STEM. We spoke to 80 students. Our speakers were Samantha Landby - South East Water, Maxime Porcheron and Najah Onn both from CMP Consulting Group Pty Ltd. Toorak College is one of the first schools who supported our program and now also one of the 3 schools involved in our SWIFT - Securing Water Industry Focused Talent program in partnership with South East Water. After the presentation, it was great to see students staying back and asking questions from our speakers, in smaller groups, about subject choices and different universities in Victoria and also internationally. The feedback received from Coco Callanan/McKay - Futures Specialist at Toorak College was great, and exactly why it's so important to keep doing what we do for the betterment of generations to come: "The students were not just engaged; they were completely captivated by the presentation! It was a delightful experience to see the students enthusiastic and animated as they discussed how much they enjoyed the session afterward. Thank you for inspiring the next generation of STEM enthusiasts. Your contribution is invaluable, and we genuinely appreciate your commitment." The Gems in STEM Program will continue to inspire, motivate and involve the next generation to ensure that every child who has a passion in STEM is supported on their journey'. CMP would like to thank the following: Toorak College, Mt Eliza Coco Callanan/McKay - Futures Specialist @Samantha Landby - South East Water Maxime Porcheron Najah O. Yohani Punyadasa Soyun Punyadasa All the Students who have participated in Gems in STEM At this point we will link CMP Consulting Group Pty Ltd, South East Water, Melbourne Water, Yarra Valley Water, Greater Western Water, Barwon Water, SMEC, Barwon Asset Solutions, Southern Rural Water, Westernport Water and Engineers Australia.

Our Year 9 students recently visited the NAB Head office, igniting their curiosity about the world of work through the IlluminatED program. This industry immersion experience showcased a wide range of careers and education paths in the finance sector, allowing the students to broaden their perspectives and understanding of the dynamic world of work. "I really enjoyed seeing how we could apply our learning into real-world industries, this excursion has given me confidence and opportunities I can hopefully utilise in the future!" - Lucy H.#opportunities #careeropportunities #industrypathways #education #changestartswitheducation
