The Northern Rivers Careers Expo is the region’s premier careers event, offering everything from local employment to tertiary education and the opportunity to travel the world. The Expo allows the region’s school leavers, jobseekers and workers wanting to retrain to meet face to face with the organisations that can open up their future. This 2-day event is packed with apprenticeship groups, career pathways, employers, training organisations, universities and tertiary education. This interaction has a profound impact on a person’s life; affecting their career, life path and future skill set. This in turn has a huge effect on the Thurs 15th & Fri 16th May region’s local economy. 9.30am - 2.00pm By promoting selected skills in demand, the Northern 2014 Goonellabah Sports & Aquatic Centre, Rivers Careers Expo can literally help to ‘future-proof’ the 50 Oliver Avenue Goonellabah local economy by ensuring that the region’s employers have access to a strong pool of skilled labour.

EXPO PARTNERS: Exhibition organiser Ashley Burke-Smith comments, ‘The Expo is by no means the only player in this process. Recognition has to go to the many exhibitors and THE REGION’S BIGGEST CAREERS EVENT sponsors that have supported this event over the years; without this ﬁ nancial support there would be no event. This year we’re delighted to have the support of three Expo partners: Crowe Horwath, I Choose Technology and North Coast TAFE. These organisations are committed to tackling skills shortages and offering genuine career paths for young people in the region.’ North Coast TAFE is also a major contributor to the interactive nature of the event – bringing a huge variety of exhibits and hands-on activities for visitors to explore CALLING ALL YRS 10, 11, 12 STUDENTS AND JOBSEEKERS!

through the Try a Trade exhibit, which is sponsored by both North Coast TAFE and CONNECT Workplace Learning. Ashley Burke-Smith continues, ‘It’s so much more valuable for someone to touch, feel and try a trade or skill rather than take home a ﬂ yer. Young people today are used to visual and interactive information – expecting them to join a profession by giving them a brochure is not going to work. You need to let them have a go and see if they like it. Here they can try: Bricklaying, Cabinetmaking, Construction, Hairdressing, Food Preparation, Changing a Tyre, Virtual Spray Painting and Welding and much more. This try before you buy concept makes a real difference to the likelihood that someone will choose a skill or trade in demand.’ As well as a focus on apprenticeships and traineeships, the expo will feature exhibits from universities including Bond, Newcastle, New England and Southern Cross. This, overseas volunteering, and a number of private organisations offering tertiary education are a direct result of requests by visitors for a wider range of tertiary options and means that year 11 and 12 students are well catered for. The end result is an expo that can set you on the path to quality employment in your hometown or to a career that will let you explore the world. The 2014 Northern Rivers Careers Expo will be held on May 15 and 16 at the Goonellabah Sports and Aquatics Centre, Oliver Avenue, Goonellabah 9.30am–2pm.
