Other Information on Careers Planning

The LSC provides strategic industry intelligence to the Department of Training and Workforce Development and the Office of the State Training Board and as such we do not provide training or career counselling services ourselves. However, if you are interested in a career in one of the Transport, Logistics, Defence or Defence Industries consider visiting our industry sectors pages to learn more about the occupations and skills in demand. You can also click on our Careers Pathway Booklets which will help prospective students identify their future training pathway.

The Vet Qualifications for Secondary Students Register

The VET qualifications register for secondary students provides industry intelligence for schools and RTOs on the suitability and delivery requirements of qualifications to be undertaken by secondary students, with the aim of assisting schools and RTOs to select qualifications that would best facilitate the transition of students from school to the workplace, or to further training opportunities.
