High expectations and meaningful career advice

The community sector is a major and growing employer but is not well recognised as a viable career path for young people.

The Victorian health care and social assistance industry, which includes most community services, is largest industry by employment in Victoria. It is predicted that by 2020 an additional 64,000 health care and social assistance jobs will be created, an almost 16 per cent increase.

Recognising the community sector as an employer can help young people understand and explore the wide range of career options and pathways available.
