Work experience with Sunshine Coast Council
Do you know what you want to be when you grow up, yet?
There can be a lot of pressure in those final schooling years to have your chosen career sorted and a path to get there. Whether you’re still figuring out what interests you or you’re so ready, you wish you were graduated already, our Work Experience Program gives you a taste of what to expect.
Students gain a valuable introduction to working in local government along with practical experience in their chosen field or industry of interest.
